🎁Gift-giving in the workplace isn’t just a nice gesture—it’s a crucial way to build connections, foster a positive community, and show appreciation in a meaningful way.🫂 At Homemade in DC, we understand how personal and impactful a thoughtful gift can be.

From the selection of local, diverse snacks to the handwritten notes that accompany them, we ensure your recipients feel truly valued and extra special.🫶 Let us help you create those meaningful moments in your workplace, one gift box at a time! #WorkplaceGifts ##EmployeeAppreciation #HomemadeInDC #PersonalizedGifting #SupportLocal #WomenOwnedBusiness #CorporateGifting

Happy #ThrowbackThursday! 🎉 As an entrepreneur in the food industry (and a former college student myself!), I know one thing for sure—nothing gets college students excited quite like free food! 🍪💙 So, we were thrilled when Georgetown’s Graduate Women in Business (GWiB) club chose us to cater a cookie and dessert spread for their scarf sale event. GWiB wanted to thank their members for their hard work while also drawing more of the student body to check out the sale. Following GWiB's lead, we sourced all treats from incredible women-owned businesses, creating a spread that not only satisfied sweet cravings but also aligned with our shared mission to support female entrepreneurs. 💪✨ As a GWiB alum, it was such an honor to come back and work with this amazing group in a new way. I feel so lucky to have been part of an organization filled with inspiring, supportive women who uplift one another. 💖 Here’s to many more collaborations with organizations that are truly making a difference! #WomenSupportingWomen #WomenEntreprenuers #SupportLocal

Congrats to our founder Mackenzie Loy for joining this amazing cohort of female founders and business owners!
So honored to have been accepted and thrilled to join the Milestone Circles program at the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center! We kicked off this 12 week program this week (yes, right smack dab in the middle of packing and shipping 350+ holiday gift boxes) and while it took a few extra minutes for me to re-center and be present, I'm so grateful to be joining and supporting 30 other female founders and business owners. These 12 weeks are focused on nurturing us as founders to grow the business in a meaningful and measurable way by the end of February. Do it right and you just might see my face in Times Square 🫢 Cheers to rocking the end of the year and setting ourselves up for a fab 2025! Thank you Wells Fargo for this opportunity! What 12 week milestones are folks working on? My 12 week milestone if finally getting HubSpot working for me with email marketing to share the impact of our orders with our customers. The key is being able to share the impact and stay top of mind with our customers in a way that's not literally me sending each and every email. ⬅️ Not scalable, but highly personal! #MilestoneCircles #WomenEntrepreneurs #Accelerator #FemaleFounders #HomemadeinDC #FoundersofColor

Did you know? 🔹 Only 23% of C-suite executives in the food industry are women. 🔹 That number drops to a shocking 3% for women of color. 😨 🔹Companies with strong gender diversity are 15% more likely to outperform their peers. 💼✨ At Homemade in DC, we’re working to change those numbers by supporting and uplifting women in the food industry, especially women of color. Our curated gift boxes and carefully planned catering feature food crafted by female entrepreneurs right here in D.C., giving them the platform and recognition they deserve. When you choose Homemade in DC, you’re not just buying snacks—you’re investing in the future of women-owned businesses. Together, we can help close the gender gap and create a more equitable food industry. #SupportWomen #GenderDiversity #WomenInBusiness #HomemadeInDC #Empowerment #WomenOwned #DiversityMatters #GiftWithPurpose
