“We’re so thankful for the support from guests and Tims restaurant owners across Canada which collectively helped raise over $800,000 in just one day to help five Indigenous organizations,” said Axel Schwan, president of Tim Hortons.
Proceeds will help these organizations in their missions to educate and raise awareness about Indigenous history, provide supports to residential school survivors, families experiencing intergenerational trauma, and Indigenous youth right across the country.
Every year on Sept. 30, Tim Hortons restaurant owners donate 100 per cent of the proceeds from Orange Sprinkle Donuts to Indigenous organizations.

“The Orange Shirt Society extends its sincere appreciation to Tim Hortons for its commitment to Reconciliation and for providing a platform for all Canadians to unite and foster education and awareness through the Orange Sprinkle Donut campaign. We are grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this journey of healing and reconciliation. With the proceeds from the Orange Sprinkle Donut campaign, we can sustain our initiatives, including the Orange Jersey Project, Every Child Matters Crosswalk, Quilt for Survivors, Survivor Speaker Series, and our 2026 Educational Event.”
