Wendy’s® partners with Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption for a sweet fundraiser

Buy a Frosty™ key tag for $1 and enjoy free Jr. Frostys through May 31, 2012

JANUARY 9, 2012: PORTLAND,OR -- For $1, customers at participating Wendy’s restaurants in the Portland-Salem, SW WA area can enjoy free Jr. Frostys through the month of May while supporting the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption and its signature program, Wendy’s Wonderful Kids.

From January through February 12, 2012 (while supplies last), customers can purchase a $1 Frosty key tag at participating Wendy’s throughout the Portland-Salem and SW WA areas. By showing the key tag on subsequent visits to Wendy’s, customers will receive a free Jr. Frosty with any purchase, as often as they wish through May 31, 2012. Wendy’s will donate the net proceeds of key tag sales to the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption in support of its Wendy’s Wonderful Kids program.

“Every child deserves a family,” said Rita Soronen, president and CEO of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption. “Wendy’s Wonderful Kids, a signature, results-driven program of the Foundation, is making a difference for thousands of children – one child at a time. We fund the work of adoption professionals in the Portland-Salem area and throughout North America, who execute aggressive recruitment efforts targeted exclusively on moving children from foster care into adoptive families. These are children who, through no fault of their own, have been removed from their birth families and are waiting to be adopted.”

Jeff Vogel, President of Wendy’s Portland Co-op said, “We strive to keep Dave Thomas’ ideas and beliefs at the heart of the Wendy’s culture. One thing that Dave believed was that everyone has a responsibility to give something back, to help those who can’t help themselves. Our Frosty key tag fund-raiser is one way of giving back to the community where we live and work.”
