Benefit the Foundation's Mission by Planning an Event

We appreciate your interest in planning a special event to benefit the Foundation’s mission. Your efforts help ensure that every child waiting to be adopted from foster care has the security and support of a permanent home.

While anyone is encouraged to donate to the Foundation at any time, officially associating the organization with special events or promotions requires submission of an application form and formal approval.

Event Ideas

There are several ways to support the Foundation by planning an event:

  • Host a giveback campaign with a local store or restaurant
  • Plan a fundraising activity with your employees or coworkers
  • Invite your local community to participate in a giving challenge, social event or sports outing

Partner Spotlight

The Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption is grateful for businesses, like Crooked Can Brewing Company in Ohio, who hosted its third annual summer event welcoming the community to learn about and support our mission.

“Crooked Can Brewing Co. is thankful to partner with the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption through our annual family-friendly summer carnival. Hosting an event with the Foundation always proves to be collaborative, seamless and, most of all, meaningful. We’re confident that our event makes a real life-changing difference for children waiting in foster care.”
