PRINCE GEORGE —$47,853.38

That’s how much money was raised through the Tim Hortons Smile Cookie Campaign in Prince George from Sept.19-25.

Spirit of the North Healthcare Foundation says the money will be used to support pediatric patients here in the North.

This includes final additions to the pediatric calming room – a space specifically designed to de-escalate children in a heightened emotional state in a safe area, removing the chaos of a hospital setting.

“We are so thankful to Tim Hortons in Prince George, along with everyone who supported the campaign by purchasing a Smile Cookie, ultimately helping our littlest patients here at home,” said Aimee Cassie, CEO. Spirit of the North Healthcare Foundation.

“The Smile Cookie Campaign has been instrumental in funding some truly needed pieces throughout the North, and this year is no exception. These final touches on the Calming Room, along with other vital pieces of equipment for the NICU department, will go a long way in supporting our littlest patients here at home.”
