Burger 21 has provided more than $127,000 in contributions through its "B Charitable" initiative since its inception, according to a company press release.

Burger 21 donates 10 percent of its restaurants' sales to schools and local charities on the 21st of each month to support the communities in which it operates.

"Since opening our doors five years ago, we've made giving back a part of our brand culture and we're proud of what we've accomplished thus far," said Mark Johnston, Burger 21 founder and president, in a company press release. "Exceeding $100,000 in contributions for our 'B Charitable' initiative marks a significant milestone for our brand and is a true testament of how small business owners can make a positive impact in their communities."

To date, hundreds of schools and charities from across the country have benefitted from the program. In addition to its "B Charitable" initiative, the brand's 21st burger makes its debut on the 21st of each month along with a featured shake available for a limited time.

Burger 21 has 15 locations open in seven states and 25 in development.
