Participating Panera Bread in the Greater Chicago area will donate ten cents from every Easter Bunny cookie sold to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois for two weeks, from March 21 until April 4.
We invite you to practice your sugar art by decorating Easter Bunny cookies to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois. Patrons will be able to purchase unfrosted bunny-shaped shortbread cookies and frost and decorate them at the following Panera locations.
