More Than Burgers: Whataburger Celebrates a Year of Community Impact

For more than 75 years, Whataburger has been more than a place to grab a great burger. We've been part of the neighborhoods we serve, celebrating milestones, supporting local causes and showing up when our communities need us most. In 2025, that commitment came to life in a big way.

Whataburger's newly released 2025 Community Impact Report highlights the meaningful difference made possible by our Family Members, customers, franchisees and nonprofit partners across the communities we call home.

Together, we accomplished some pretty incredible things:

  • More than $3 million invested in the communities we serve through charitable partnerships and community initiatives.
  • More than $1.7 million raised through our Cups That Care campaign to support recovery efforts following the devastating July 2025 floods in Central Texas.
  • More than 1,000 volunteer hours contributed by Home Office Family Members, supporting organizations making a difference in our hometown.

Making a Difference, One Community at a Time

Behind every number is a story of people coming together to make their communities stronger. Through our signature Feeding Student Success initiative, Whataburger continued investing in education, supporting students through scholarships, college Resource Rooms and partnerships that help remove barriers to academic success.

Our commitment to fighting hunger also reached communities across our footprint. In partnership with local food banks and hunger relief organizations, Whataburger helped provide millions of meals to neighbors facing food insecurity.

We also continued honoring the military families, veterans and first responders who serve our communities, while supporting local cultural organizations and responding when disaster struck.

And none of it would be possible without our Family Members. From volunteering at food banks to supporting local schools and community events, their dedication to serving others extends well beyond our restaurant doors.
