It’s a sweet way to show your support for Special Olympic athletes.

Special Olympics Canada has once again partnered with Tim Hortons to create the limited-edition #ChoosetoInclude Donut, available from January 28 to 30.

One hundred per cent of the proceeds from sales of the donut will go directly to local Special Olympics community programs, supporting more than 41,000 athletes with intellectual disabilities across Canada.

“Special Olympics has made a big impact in my life, physically and mentally. My confidence has gotten so much better since I joined Special Olympics. I’ve made so many new friends, and been able to do so many different competitions. Thanks to Special Olympics, now I’m able to play the sports I love,” said Special Olympics BC – Cowichan Valley athlete and Tim Hortons Team Member Julie Black.
