Who doesn’t love empanadas? Especially when they’re made with heart and purpose. Latin Goodness Foods/MasPanadas, a small but mighty woman-owned business in Maryland, has grown from Margarita Womack’s home kitchen into a nationally recognized brand. Margarita, originally from Colombia, turned her passion for empanadas—her favorite childhood snack—into a thriving business that employs nearly 80 people and runs a 24-hour factory. You can now find MasPanadas at Costco Wholesale, Wegmans Food Markets’s, Whole Foods Market, and more! But MasPanadas is about so much more than delicious food. Margarita has built her company on values like opportunity, fair wages, and respect for everyone—creating a culture that benefits her business, her employees, and their families. We love celebrating stories like this because they show the power of women entrepreneurs who are making a difference in their communities and beyond.

Who else is excited about today's opening of Wicked? Are you going? Dressing up? Bringing your girls? Wicked highlights the power of female friendship in defying societal expectations. Elphaba and Glinda support each other despite their differences, showing how women can rise above stereotypes, celebrate each other's uniqueness, and grow stronger together. Their bond illustrates that, by empowering one another, women can find their true voices and create change, united by resilience and mutual respect. The themes in Wicked resonate strongly with Working for Women's mission to uplift and empower women. Like the friendship between Elphaba and Glinda, Working for Women brings together businesses and nonprofits to support women, helping them break through barriers and embrace their strengths. This collaborative approach echoes the story's message: women are stronger when they lift each other up, creating meaningful opportunities and lasting change.
