At Panera Bread®, we believe in giving back to local communities. We show our appreciation for customers not only within our bakery-cafes but also throughout the communities we serve by sponsoring special events open to the neighborhood, participating in charitable events and offering various Operation Dough-Nation® programs.
Community Bread Box
With the generous help of our customers, we have been collecting funds in all of our 31 Greater Chicago area Panera Bread locations through our Share the Bread community breadboxes. All donations go to the Make a Wish Foundation

Day-End Dough-Nation
Another component of the Operation Dough-Nation® program is our commitment to giving back to those who are hungry in our community. At the end of each day, all unsold bread and bakery products are donated to local food banks and pantries.
If you would like to be one of our "Day-End" partners, please contact your local Panera Bread for details.
