From Canada With Love: A Little Generosity Goes A Long Way

If you’ve ever been to Canada you may have dined at a Tim Horton’s. The quick-serve restaurant is one of the largest in North America.

This holiday season, the brand brings Canadian values to life through its iconic True Stories campaign, inspired by the lives of Canadians across the country. Chosen from almost 18,000 stories received organically through the Tim Hortons website since 2008, Tim Hortons six new True Stories are based on real people and real experiences.

The following True Story is a particularly endearing example of generosity – Little Man with a Big Heart – which was submitted by Kelsey Kuefler, a former Tim Hortons team member.

“I had no idea that Conor’s story would move so many people,” says Megan Raichel, Conor’s mom. “Our hope is that Conor’s story inspires others to do the same this holiday season.”
