It couldn’t be simpler to get involved. Visit Tim Hortons in Black Diamond between April 27 and May 3, grab a Smile Cookie, and 100% of the proceeds come right back to our community.
This year, every dollar raised powers the Diamond Valley Youth Foundation’s “No Kid Left Behind” program. Because the truth is — there are kids right here in Diamond Valley facing real barriers, and we’re not okay with that. We believe every child deserves access to programs, resources, and opportunities, no matter what their family is going through.
One cookie. Real impact. Right here at home in Diamond Valley, Alberta. 💛
