Frosties All Around


Since none of us has received our Travel Call,

let's drown our sorrows in Frosties!




This is the big weekend when Wendy's donates fifty cents from each Frosty purchase to helping kids in foster care.

Saturday and Sunday.  Tomorrow and the next day.

If you don't eat Frosties, buy one or four anyway and find a homeless person or four to give it to.  You'll be helping all kinds of people.

Read more about it at www.wendys.com and watch this little clip...










Here's Dave Thomas' story...

In 1990, at the request of President George H. W. Bush, Dave Thomas began to speak out publicly and encourage people to consider foster care adoption. He spearheaded a national public service campaign and encouraged other business leaders to offer adoption benefits as part of their employee benefit plans.

But Dave wanted to do more. So in 1992, he established the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption. Over the years, Dave’s modest charisma and simple sincerity helped spread the word about adoption. He testified before Congress in support of adoption tax credits and adoption legislation, appeared in television public service announcements, expanded his reach to Canada, and led the initiative to create an adoption stamp, which was issued by the U.S. Postal Service in 2000.

On January 8, 2002, Dave passed away and the world lost one of its greatest advocates for children. Dave Thomas was respected for being a talented businessman and a caring philanthropist; his unceasing desire to improve the lives of North America’s most vulnerable children was arguably his greatest contribution to society. In honor of Dave, our Foundation will continue to commit itself to the vision he set forth: to make sure every child has a permanent and loving family. It’s a lofty vision. But Dave would expect nothing less.



Have a Frosty.  Become a foster parent.
