Tim Hortons & Barbie Created Sports Dolls to Support Girls' Hockey
Laura McQuarrie — November 12, 2020 — Life-Stages
Tim Hortons and Mattel created sports dolls based on Marie-Philip Poulin and Sarah Nurse—two Canadian women who have broken barriers in hockey—to encourage even more girls to get into the winter sport. The Tim Hortons Hockey Barbie dolls stay true to Barbie's mission of showing girls that they can be anything that they dream of.
At select Tim Hortons restaurants, the collectible Tim Hortons Hockey Barbie dolls can be picked up to support the Hockey Canada Foundation and its support of girls' hockey. At Tim Hortons, there are also special Tim Hortons Hockey Barbie donuts with a fondant top and an edible image of Hockey Barbie, plus Hockey Barbie-branded Tim Cards that are perfect for gifting.
