Make-A-Wish for Green Oaks resident
An 11-year-old Green Oaks girl with cystic fibrosis will be among the recipients of a campaign to grant the wishes of ill children. From July 11 to July 24, Panera Bread stores in the Chicago area will donate 10 cents of every Flower Cookie to Make-A-Wish to help fulfill the dreams including that of Olivia Tomasetti, who was diagnosed with the disease that causes difficulty breathing and lung infections. Tomasetti wished for a family vacation to Hawaii. Panera raised more than $45,000 between January and April to help grant five wishes.
