WINGSTOP CHARITIES GIVES BACK $1.3 MILLION IN 2023!

Wingstop Charities is committed to strengthening the neighborhoods that we serve by being strong, active, corporate citizens, and good neighbors. We are dedicated to amplifying the flavor of our communities through service by focusing on environment, education, sports, food, and entrepreneurship. In 2023, we gave back over $1.3 million in grants—the largest amount to date! Our Community Grant program allows brand partners and team members to sponsor the organizations they support to apply for grants to further the impact in their local communities. This year, we were able to support projects ranging from book vending machines that promote literacy to elementary school students, projects that encourage active and healthy communities “Shark-Tank” influenced programs that encourage youth entrepreneurship, to projects that address food insecurity.
