WHEN WE SAY WE'RE A FAMILY, WE DON'T JUST TALK THE TALK
When their restaurant closed, Whataburger Family Members went to work in the community.
The Whataburger restaurant in Liberty, Texas, was on fire. An electrical fire had started in the roof about 5 a.m. May 31, and the store would have to be closed for several months. Tamminga knew what that would mean for the 50-plus Whataburger Family Members at the restaurant: months of uncertainty – without a paycheck. ”They have bills to pay and families to take care of,” he says. “We wanted to take care of them, the same way they take care of us.”
So Whataburger decided to lift up their Family Members and invest in their community at the same time by paying Family Members to volunteer at local nonprofits. “It’s a way for us to stay connected to the community and with our Family Members while we get rebuilt,” Tamminga says. It’s an effort that Whataburger corporate stores and other franchisees have done before when a unit has been shut down for repairs — and it’s been a win-win.
