The Habit Burger Grill announced this week it raised more than $11,000 to support the National Veterans Transition Services, a nonprofit that helps veterans transition back to civilian life.

National Veterans Transition Services has helped thousands of veterans make the challenging switch back to civilian life through workshops that focus on relearning civilian culture while using military skills to their advantage. The educational workshops build upon military training and experience while preparing for life after the military. Operation REBOOT will match veterans with more than 500 area businesses.

“At The Habit, better burgers are just the beginning as we serve the community. We appreciate the support of our San Diego fans and excited to know this effort will help Reboot serve even more veterans,” said Russ Bendel, CEO of the Habit Burger Grill.

The Habit Burger Grill opened its first San Diego location in 2011, and now operates nine restaurants in San Diego with three more planned to open in the area year.
