Frosty for Father's Day...for a good cause

 

 Throughout Father’s Day Frosty Weekend – Saturday, June 15 and Sunday, June 16 –  participating Wendy’s will donate 50 cents from the sale of every Frosty product to support a national effort to match America’s foster children with prospective adoptive parents.  All Frosty products are included — including the newest treat, the Frosty Waffle Cone.

2013 marks the seventh consecutive year of Wendy’s Father’s Day Frosty Weekend. Last year, Wendy’s raised $1.5 million during the celebration, and hopes for $1.7 million this year.

“Nothing was more important to my dad than family, and that’s why he started the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption,” said Wendy Thomas, daughter of Wendy’s founder Dave Thomas who was adopted himself. “I can think of no better way of honoring fathers everywhere, and my dad’s legacy, than to raise a Frosty cone or cup and help another child find their forever father.”
