MLB Umpires Marvin Hudson, Randy Marsh, and Brian Knight welcome LaSonya, Vashti, Charleston, and Lamont to Great American Ballpark for a game between the Brewers and Reds. Michael Michelle Willis is a Wendy's Wonderful Kids (WWK) recruiter for the Hamilton County Department of Jobs and Family Services and helped to arrange for the group to attend the game. Ms. Willis works to move children in the Cincinnati area from foster care into permanent, loving adoptive homes.

Wendy’s Wonderful Kids is the direct-service signature program of the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption that combines the fundraising of Wendy's and its customers, aggressive grants management of the Foundation, and the talent of experienced adoption recruiters throughout the nation and in Canada to move children from foster care into permanent, loving adoptive homes.
