Countywide Whatburger "Oh Whata Night" Fundraiser to benefit San Antonio Food Bank

All Bexar County Whataburger Locations Host Event in Honor of Hunger Action Month

On Tuesday, Sept. 22, Whataburger customers can show their support for the San Antonio Food Bank by enjoying their favorite menu items at any Whataburger location in Bexar County, and 20 percent of Whataburger’s sales from 6 to 8 p.m. will be donated to the organization.

These funds will be added to the $25,000 Whataburger is donating as a presenting sponsor of “SA Goes Orange for Hunger,” the San Antonio Food Bank’s campaign designed to encourage everyone to "Go Orange" and take action to fight hunger during September.

“Hunger prevention is very near to our hearts at Whataburger and we are committed to helping those in our community who aren’t able to make ends meet,” said Whataburger Vice President of Corporate Communications Pam Cox. “To help support the efforts of the San Antonio Food Bank, we invite our customers to dine with us on September 22 and we will donate a percent of sales from that evening’s event to help fight hunger. We are so grateful that through our customer’s loyal support we are able to contribute to causes like the San Antonio Food Bank.”

Family-owned Whataburger has proudly served its famous burgers since 1950 and continues to deliver fresh, made-to-order meals every day with extraordinary customer service. In addition to Oh Whata Night fundraising, Whataburger supports the communities it serves through charitable giving and volunteerism to a number of nonprofit organizations that focus on children’s charities, cancer research, hunger assistance, disaster relief and military support.
