Around here, we celebrate moms every day, but this weekend, it’s all about DAD! We’ve already told you about some awesome gifts that he’ll love, but today we’ve got a delicious treat that he can enjoy with the whole family! Frostys!
Now through Father’s Day, anyone can enjoy this delicious treat and help children in foster care find permanent, loving homes at the same time! Continuing its Father’s Day Frosty Weekend tradition for the sixth year in a row, Wendy’s is inviting customers to help raise money for Wendy’s Wonderful Kids. This signature program of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption is dedicated to finding permanent adoptive families for children in foster care. How, do you ask? Here’s what you need to know:
WHO: Everyone! And dad, too!
WHAT: 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)
HOW: 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 Fathers Day Weekend (June 16 and 17 only) using Wendy’s special mobile-friendly website, found at http://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.
So this weekend, take Dad to Wendy’s and have some fun while giving back! And if you want to chat directly with Wendy’s, we’ve got good news! We’re having a fabulous Twitter party planned with Wendy’s for Wednesday, June 20 from 1-2 p.m. EST!
We’ll be discussing nutritious eating on-the-go, because with the summer months upon us, Wendy’s knows families will be traveling and on-the-go with busy schedules! They also know that paying more attention to health and wellness these days, and they’ve been offering new menu items to reflect those interests!
Join us (@theMotherhood, @Wendys), some amazing co-hosts and Wendy’s registered dietitians, Patty Wynkoop and Mike Sieminski, who work closely with the Wendy’s culinary team to find new ways to come up with tasty and nutritious menu items! Join us on Twitter and follow the #BerryTasty hashtag to track the conversation. See the details and RSVP with this Twtvite.
And of course, Wendy’s will be giving away a total of 10 prizes (each prize is a $20 Wendy’s gift card). Winners will be chosen randomly from among participants who respond correctly to trivia questions, two winners per question.
