About Together We Bake

Together We Bake’s mission is to provide a comprehensive workforce training and personal development program to help women gain self-confidence, transferable workforce skills, and invaluable hands-on experience which will allow them to find sustainable employment and move toward self-sufficiency. The program revolves around a social enterprise, a small baking business in Old Town Alexandria. The purpose of the program is to empower women facing barriers to employment to achieve long-term self-sufficiency, not in spite of the challenges in their past, but because of the strength they have gained by persevering through those difficulties. Program participants, called “Team Members,” gain workforce and soft skills that help them obtain and maintain employment. With the support of TWB staff
