Local Hamra Panera Donates to St. Charles Dispatch Center

Hamra Enterprises' Kane County Paneras Deliver Breakfast to IL Dispatch Employees to Celebrate National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week

Hamra Enterprises, owner of 36 Panera Bread Cafes in Illinois, is showing their appreciation for the people who spend each day protecting our community behind the scenes. Every year, Hamra donates over $800,000 worth of leftover product to charities throughout the Chicago-land area, and during National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week (April 13-19), they brought breakfast to three dispatch centers in Illinois and serving the employees coffee, juice and bagels as a ‘thank you’ for allowing Panera Bread customers in Kane County to feel safe and at home in their cafés.
