Panera's donates $626.50 to Kent Hospital
The money was raised thanks to the participating bakery-cafes’ customers joining the fight against breast cancer and choosing to eat a Pink Ribbon Bagel for breakfast, lunch or dinner during national Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October. Twenty-five cents from each Pink Ribbon Bagel sold at the three bakery-cafes went to the cause.
The Panera Pink Ribbon Bagel project follows the tradition of “thinking pink” during the month of October in the quest to eradicate breast cancer disease. Sue Stees, one of Panera Bread’s first franchisees and a breast cancer survivor, developed the idea for the Pink Ribbon Bagel in 2001 as a way to help support the cause. Today, the program is employed in all of Panera Bread’s more than 1,275 bakery-cafes across the country.
