Whataburger has partnered with Boys & Girls Clubs in 19 cities to host company volunteer events. The Whataburger Feeding Student Success Back to School Program launched this year in honor of the company's 72nd anniversary, according to a press release.

A series of volunteer events from July 29 to August 22 were part of the Whataburger Feeding Student Success Back-to-School Program. Whataburger employees, known as Family Members, delivered Whataburger-branded school supplies, games and food to students. Additionally, each club received a $2,000 monetary donation to support youth educational opportunities. A total of $170,000, including monetary donations and in-kind gifts, were donated to 20 clubs across nine states.

"Boys & Girls Clubs of America does wonderful work to ensure children have a safe place and enriching programs to reach their full potential," Melba Harris, Whataburger community experience manager, said in the press release. "To help students get the school year started off right, Whataburger provided educational support during our Whataburger Feeding Student Success Back-To-School Program, making a difference at clubs across our communities."

Whataburger operates more than 890 locations across 14 states.
