Whataburger and Round Rock Express to Host Fundraiser for Town and Country Sports

May 15, 2017

Here is a link to the original story on the team's website.

AUSTIN, Texas – On Thursday, May 25, Whataburger is partnering with Round Rock Express to support Town and Country Sports, an athletic facility serving northwest Austin-area youth. Attendees are invited to enjoy their favorite menu items, and 20 percent of Whataburger’s sales from 5 to 8 p.m. will be donated to the organization to go towards supporting youth development through youth-oriented community activities and sportsmanship programs. To add to the fun, there will be the popular “Whataburger for a Year” raffle and a special guest appearance from Whataburger’s mascot, Whataguy.

“Whataburger believes in investing in the communities we call home, and we’re committed to supporting youth sports at every level,” said Whataburger Director of Operations Don Hurrell. “Thanks to our partner Round Rock Express and our loyal customers, we’ll be able to support Town and Country Sports promote an environment of learning and sportsmanship for local young athletes.”

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.

Welcome to clubphilanthropy.com!

Minor League Baseball clubs have been actively involved in their communities for many years. For the first time, their activities and contributions will be chronicled on this site.

Clubs don’t publicize all of their activity, so these stories represent a mere fraction of the contributions MiLB clubs make to their communities every year.
