Panera Helps Northwell Health Change Health Care For The Better

After successfully partnering with Northwell Health, representatives from Panera Bread locations owned and operated by Doherty Enterprises presented a check for $5,000.00 to the nonprofit health system on June 13. Thanks to their efforts throughout the last two weeks of May, these Panera Bread locations helped Northwell Health reach their total fundraising goal of $1 million for the Northwell Health Walk. The funds raised will be used to support and further Northwell Health’s mission to improve the health of the communities it serves and continue its care throughout 23 hospitals and 750 care locations. Doherty Enterprises is committed to giving back to the communities, and each Doherty Enterprises restaurant stays engaged in its neighborhood through participation in community events, donations, sponsorships and fundraisers to help local organizations grow and flourish.
