Making a Life-Changing Difference Together Since 1992

The Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption is honored to be Wendy’s charity of choice. For more than 30 years, the Foundation has had a special relationship with Wendy’s built on a shared commitment to achieving our shared founder Dave Thomas’ vision that every child has a permanent home and a loving family.

Unwavering Support

The Wendy’s Company, its franchise owners and operators, suppliers, employees and customers unwaveringly support the Foundation through events, personal gifts and in-restaurant campaigns, such as Frosty® Key Tags, Halloween Boo! Books® and Coin Canisters.

Thank You for Your Support

When you support campaigns like Boo Books! and Frosty Key Tags, you are helping to advance the Foundation’s commitment to finding forever families for the more than 108,000 children waiting in foster care across the U.S.

Frosty Key Tags

Please check back in December for the 2025 Frosty Key Tags.

Boo! Books

Your support of the Boo! Books campaign helps the Foundation continue expanding the reach of our national awareness campaigns and innovative programs, so that no child lingers in foster care.

Please check back in September 2025 for the newest edition.

Thank you, Wendy’s family!
