Restaurant chain Wendy’s is going nationwide with a foundation program that helps to raise funds for adoptions of difficult-to-place foster children.

The Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, named after the restaurant chain’s founder — who was adopted himself — is expanding its Wendy’s Wonderful Kids program that helps to find loving homes for children in foster care. These children are often older, or have special needs, which make them more difficult to place permanently.

Pro-life organization Live Action observed that as many companies are rushing to support abortion, Wendy’s is raising funds for adoptions.

“Fast-food chain Wendy’s and its partner, the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, has at its heart the interests of the children who are frequently trotted out as ‘reasons to abort’ — those who are in foster care waiting to be adopted,” Live Action noted.

The foundation’s website notes the words of Dave Thomas himself: “These children are not someone else’s responsibility. They are our responsibility.”

The foundation, which has partnered with Snapchat through the Cause Cup program, states about 400,000 children live in foster care in the United States. Snapchat users scan their phone over the fast-food chain’s cameo on the restaurant’s beverage cups. Once the marker is detected, Wendy’s will donate five dollars to the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption.

“[W]e believe that every child deserves a permanent home and loving family,” the foundation says. “The work the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption does through Wendy’s Wonderful Kids – its signature program – has helped more than 8,500 children find their forever families.”

In 2017, Rita Soronen, president and CEO of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, told Columbus Monthly the Wendy’s adoption program has put in place “evidence-based programs” that help to find homes for children in the special foster care situation who are not easy to place. . . .

Lord, thank you for Wendy’s founder, Dave Thomas, and the foundation to find forever homes for foster children. There are many who cannot have children but have a heart for a child to love, nurture and help grow into the plan that God has for them. May You, Lord, continue to bless Wendy’s and the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption. Shine your light on this organization to show that God is at work at Wendy’s.

So beautiful! That’s why I choose Wendy’s when go to fast food..so many others are standing for all the ungodly things such as gay marriage, abortion or refusing to support Godly agendas of news anchors and pulling out their sponsorship!..Thank God for Wendy’s and home depot and hobby lobby and chic-ful-a etc.!!

Dear Lord God Almighty thank You for everything. Thank You for prayer. I pray for the 400,000 children living in foster care. May they live in a forever home that is loving as soon as possible. May people who have good hearts look into adoption. God please help situations that are best for all to happen. I pray this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Praying God will open new doors as this awareness is spread throughout our nation. What a blessing and inspiration to hear Wendy’s has taken this admirable stand for life and the precious children who need homes and potential parents who will step up and offer a placement into a permanent home! Great is that reward as life itself is celebrated and honored in this beautiful way! May God enlarge this territory of “love in action”! Blessing and profound growth be yours in this Godly endeavor! He gives the increase as none other can as He is the Creator and Giver of LIFE itself! Praising the Name of the LORD!

Thank you Lord for Dave Thomas and Wendy’s for taking a stand and raising the bar regarding the need the Foundation addresses and the responsibility the society must bear to see that these children are taken care of. May the grace of our God be with them as they press forward in response to such an obvious need in the American family. Keep us focused upon that which is an obvious concern for all of us in the Name of Jesus, Amen!
