Philadelphia, PA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 10/28/2021 --Chickie's and Pete's is teaming up with Eagles legend and NFL Hall of Famer Brian Dawkins and the Brian Dawkins Impact Foundation by adding an incredible new choice to their burger menu.

The B DAWK IMPACT BURGER is a tasty creation of a Primal Supply grass-fed burger seasoned with jerk spices, provolone cheese, Caribbean spiced pineapple sauce, jalapeño chimichurri, and topped with a fried egg and arugula.

The burger's combination of flavors was created by Brian Dawkins, with its name inspired by the Foundation. Created in 2019, the Foundation works to provide inspiration and educational resources to young people experiencing hardships - young people who have the desire to make positive decisions in life and just need the tools to make it happen.

$5.00 from the sale of each Impact Burger at Chickie's and Pete's will go to the Brian Dawkins Impact Foundation important work to support youth mental wellbeing in the face of the pandemic and a new initiative to provide modest grants to low-income single parents. The burger will be for sale at all local, full-service Chickie's and Pete's locations until Feb. 2022.

Brian Dawkins along with Chickie's and Pete's founder Pete Ciarrocchi will launch the burger and host a media day on Monday, November 1st, and travel throughout the Delaware Valley in the Chickie's Crabfries Express food truck.

At 11:30am, Brian Dawkins, Pete and the Crabfries food truck will stop at George Washington High School in Northeast Philadelphia to talk with students and provide lunch.

Then, at 6pm Brian Dawkins will sign copies of his new book "Blessed by the Best: My Journey to Canton and Beyond" at Chickie's and Pete's, 1526 Packer Ave., Philadelphia. 50% of net proceeds received by Brian from sales will be pledged to the Brian Dawkins Impact Foundation. Books can be preordered at https://chickiesandpetes.ticketleap.com/brian-dawkins/

"The opportunity to add this fantastic new taste creation to our burger menu and at the same time provide help to those in need is inspiring to all of us at Chickie's and Pete's." said founder Pete Ciarrocchi

"I'm proud to partner up with Pete and his outstanding team and appreciative of the financial support that this collaboration on The B DAWK IMPACT BURGER will bring to the Brian Dawkins Impact Foundation's efforts. I'm looking forward to working together to bless as many youth, families and communities as we can in Philadelphia and beyond," said Brian Dawkins.
