Wendy’s Father’s Day Frosty Weekend

 

Father’s Day is right around the corner and it is a time to celebrate families.  I know it will be a day to remember Dad but I think it is a day that encourages families to celebrate each other.  On the flip side of that, there are many children who don’t even have a family to celebrate with, and are in need of a place to be. 

For the past three years, Wendy’s has made it a Father’s Day Frosty Weekend tradition to donate 50 cents from the sale of each Frosty to the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption. The money raised goes to the Wendy’s Wonderful Kids program, which funds full-time adoption recruiters at local agencies across the U.S., who  pair up parents with foster care children needing homes. So, you and your family can enjoy a Frosty and help out a child find a loving home.  Frosties are one of our favorites in this house, so we will have no problem helping out!

You can also involve your own children in this great cause  by having them create a fun Father’s Day eCard on FrostyCard.com. For every card they send, Wendy’s will donate an additional 25 cents to the Dave Thomas Foundation. Kids can attach coupons for “taking out the trash” or “washing the car” onto the cards for Dad.  I think this is a terrific way to teach your child appreciation for the things they have in life and be able to help out a child that is less fortunate.  It involves them, teaches them the value of giving, and they get to remember Dad.

I cant think of a better way to spend time with your family while helping to create a permanent place to call home for a child in need of a family.  A frosty is a great way to have a fun day out for Father’s Day while helping make a difference.  Thank you Mom Central and Wendy’s for telling me about such a good cause!
