This surprisingly sassy animal lover is Dawn. When Dawn first came to TWB, she was quiet, shy, and closed off. Each week she became more open and willing to let her new support system in. She gained so much from weekly empowerment sessions and the comradery she found with the other team members. She even discovered a new appreciation for yoga and the inner peace […]
Imagine being a single mother of two young children, facing unemployment, and feeling unsure of what the future holds. Jessica found herself in this exact position when she decided to join the TWB team. We knew from the very first day that she would be a very hard worker. She took initiative and clearly valued the hustle! She graduated with her class, despite getting a […]
This past Fall, Pam became a part of the TWB family. She started the program with a can-do attitude and was always willing to go the extra mile, whether it was helping with farmer’s markets and showcasing her amazing sales tactics or staying late to get orders filled. Her story is one of empowerment, and we are lucky to be a part of it! Read […]
Adria started at TWB in the fall with her mask on and walls up. Being open and vulnerable with a group of women she just met was a challenge, and Adria found it more comfortable to put on a tough front that made it seem like nothing bothered her. As our 8-week program came to an end, Adria was a completely different person. She was […]

Shawn is the most thoughtful, kind, caring woman. She started our program in the Fall shy and timid, hyper-aware to what others were thinking about her; but by the time graduation rolled along, she was out of her shell, sharing her smiles and positivity, and she found her confidence. We are so lucky to continue experiencing her light when she volunteers her time in the […]
Dana graduated from our summer program job-ready, empowered, and self-sufficient. Before coming to TWB, Dana suffered from addiction, homelessness, unemployment, and was previously incarcerated. She found a sisterhood and support network through TWB and new-found self-esteem. Dana not only thrived in the kitchen, but also in empowerment groups, where she was able to be vulnerable and allowed others to share their vulnerability with her. Right […]
Tihirah recently graduated from our Fall 2018 class. She is a strong, motivated, hard-worker and has a fierce love for her family! She started our program looking to gain baking experience, but found much more in the friendships and relationships she made with the other women. Giving Tuesday is a few short weeks away. In 2017 we raised over $3,000 to help cover transportation costs. […]
