When women leave the workforce to care for their families in the home, they also care for our communities: they uphold our schools, churches, non-profit organizations, and they keep our communities running.
But instead of recognizing all that incredible work, we make it difficult for women to regain traditional employment if and when they are ready. We also take for granted the immense skills they’ve developed inside the home.
At West Tenth, we see the talents of the women around us. West Tenth is helping women turn their home-grown skills into home-based businesses and putting money into their pocketbooks at the same time.
From home bakers to family photographers, florists, decorators, party planners, and more; West Tenth makes it easy for you to discover and work with the home-based business in your own backyard.
