Twitter has awarded quick service restaurant franchise, Wendy’s, with its Golden Tweet award.

The award was given to @Wendys for a tweet it sent out to raise money for foster children. The company said that it would donate 50 cent for every retweet, which resulted in raising $50,000 for charity.

Wendy’s has been operating for over 40 years and, with more than 6,500 outlets in operation, is one of the largest restaurant franchising systems in the world.
