Tim Hortons picking up the tab for Random Acts of Kindness Week

Tim Hortons Cafe & Bake Shop is paying it forward in celebration of National Random Acts of Kindness Week by picking up the bill for unknowing guests at the drive-thru.

This is the second year Tim Hortons Cafe & Bake Shop has held its Random Acts of Kindness event. In 2011, the restaurant chain treated 5,100 guests to a free order.

This year, it plans on treating even more customers in approximately 250 restaurants throughout the U.S.

"We were in awe of the generosity and the significant number of our guests who pay for another person's order almost daily," said Mike Meilleur, senior vice president U.S. operations. "Their admirable kindness and generosity inspired us to do the same."

A customer who receives a free order will be given a sticker that reads, "I just received a Random Act of Kindness from Tim Hortons," as well as a free coffee card to pass along to someone else to continue spreading kindness.

Tim Hortons Cafe & Bake Shop's Random Acts of Kindness event kicks off in all U.S. markets at select restaurants on Feb. 13. The program ends Feb. 17.

National Random Acts of Kindness Week is celebrated Feb. 13-19 and was founded by the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation.
