THOUSANDS OF REASONS TO SMILE

An incredible $11,863 was raised through the sale of cookies during Smile Cookie Week, which ran from April 27 to May 4, 2025.

Barry’s Bay Tim Hortons chose St. Francis Valley Healthcare Foundation (SFVHF) as the beneficiary of Smile Cookie Week with funds to be directed to local healthcare needs.

The Foundation raises funds for Madawaska Valley Hospice Palliative Care (MVHPC), St. Francis Memorial Hospital (SFMH) and Valley Manor (VM).

Thank you to the owners, staff, volunteers and of course patrons, who supported this fundraiser!  Over the years, Barry’s Bay Tim Hortons has raised over $77,000 from the sale of Smile Cookies for the Foundation.
