Participating Tim Hortons U.S. restaurants in Michigan will serve Special Olympics Donuts from Jan. 31 – Feb. 2 with 100% of profits donated to support Special Olympics athletes.
The Tims Special Olympics Donut is a delicious chocolate cake donut dipped in vanilla-flavored icing, topped with rainbow sprinkles and a dollop of whipped topping in the middle. It will be sold at participating Tims restaurants in Michigan, plus in New York State, and Ohio from Jan. 31 – Feb. 2.
“The Special Olympics Tim Hortons donut will be the best donut ever!" said Mackean Campbell, Special Olympics Michigan athlete. "It will be cool to see Special Olympics donuts sold in stores that support me and other athletes.”
For every Special Olympics Donut sold, 100 percent of the profits ($1.57 per donut) will be donated to help support year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. The Tims Special Olympics Donut will help support opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy, and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes, and their community.

This partnership allows us to bring our mission to a broader audience while offering a delicious way for the community to support and cheer on the incredible individuals who inspire us every day” says Tim Hileman President & CEO, Special Olympics Michigan.
