ELGIN – The Literacy Connection, a nonprofit organization that provides adult and family literacy programs, has many ways the community can make a charitable contribution – financial or by volunteering.

One way is to make a purchase today at one of three Panera cafés.

A percentage from sales between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. will be donated to The Literacy Connection in the organization’s first Panera Café Fundraiser – Some Knead Some Give. Participating Panera cafés are 2484 N. Randall Road in Elgin; 100 W. Higgins in South Barrington; and 322 Randall Road in South Elgin.
