Whole Foods Market stores in Boston have been tweeting about an event and promotion to support those affected by the Boston bombing last year. The Boston marathon is scheduled for Monday, April 21. The bakery department at the "Symphony" Boston store made cookies that will benefit the nonprofit group One Fund Boston that works with Boston bombing victims. One Fund was started by Gov. Deval Patrick and Boston Mayor Thomas Menino.
