It Is Time For A Father's Day Frosty

Father's Day is this Sunday (just in case you didn't know), and that means it is time to raise some money for the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption and Wendy's Wonderful Kids. Now through Father's Day, you can help children in foster care find permanent, loving homes.

How do we raise this money? I'm so happy you asked. We raise money by eating a yummy Frosty (or two, or three), of course. Your mouth is watering just looking at this picture, isn't it?

You know I love a Frosty, and I love Wendy's, and I love raising money for a good cause. So this is pretty much a perfect trio of awesomeness.

(Remember that time I met the real Wendy, and she was so very nice?) 

This is what you need to know to get involved:

Help Wendy’s make a big donation to Wendy’s Wonderful Kids, the signature program of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption that is dedicated to finding permanent adoptive families for children in foster care. They want to beat last year’s $1.4 million donation. Let’s help them get there!

When: Father’s Day Weekend (June 16 – 17, 2012)

There are three ways to donate:
1. Buy any Frosty product! On Saturday, June 16 and Sunday, June 17, for each Frosty product purchased, participating Wendy’s will donate 50-cents to Wendy’s Wonderful Kids. (includes the original, parfaits, shakes and floats).

2. Use a mobile-friendly website to check in at Wendy’s: Wendy’s will donate 50-cents for every customer that checks in at Wendy’s restaurants during Father's Day Weekend (June 16 and 17 only) using Wendy’s special mobile-friendly website found at www.wendys.com/treatitforward.

3. Re-tweet: Now through Father’s Day, re-tweet one of @Wendys special Twitter posts with the hashtag #TreatItFwd—and Wendy’s will make a 50-cent donation. You can follow @Wendys on Twitter.

In other news. I have a $7 gift card to Wendy's that I'm going to send to one of you. It won't reach you in time for Father's Day, but that just means that the winner can get a Frosty this weekend to support the Dave Thomas Foundation, and then get another Frosty when the gift card arrives. Not a bad deal, if you ask me. 

To enter:
1. Leave me a comment, and tell me what kind of Frosty you like: chocolate, vanilla, or the new fancy shakes and parfaits.

2. Tweet this post, using the hashtag #TreatItFwd, and leave me a second comment with the link to your tweet.

Make sure to include your email address in your comment, so I can notify you if you are the winner.

I will pick a random winning comment June 21, 2012. Good luck!

**THE WINNER IS CAROLSUE!**

*Legal Stuff: I received a gift card to Wendy's, so my family could have Frosty's this weekend. I was not compensated in any other way. I was not required to say nice things about Wendy's or the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, I honestly like both of them.
