Michelle Santucci of Elgin, founder of Little Mac Boutique, will speak about her own inspiration, her four children, in the launch of her first business at its meeting on Thursday, March 9, 2017.

The luncheon on March 9 will be held at this month's new location of  Grumpy Goat Tavern, 875 Sports Way in Elgin with networking at 11:30 a.m., luncheon and program at noon. Meetings adjourn promptly at 1:30 p.m. Cost for members is $22.00 and non members - $25.00. Area women business professionals are welcome to attend.

This month’s meeting is sponsored by the Habitat for Humanity of Northern Fox Valley.

Speaker Santucci credits her four children, MacKenzie,7; Mylania, 6; Travis and Bentley 4.5 years of age as the inspiration for starting her first business, Little Mac Boutique.  When MacKenzie was six months old, Santucci began selling her original hairbows online via Etsy.  As time went on, she added a children’s clothing line, rainboots and many other children’s accessories. 

Over time, her orders grew to over 800 per week. She now sells her products at craft shows, a biannual open house, and on the website www.littlemacboutique.com. 

“Michelle is a stay-at-home mom,” said Ramona ‘Monie’ Burns, this year’s 2016-17 WIM Fox Valley president, “who took her creative talents to the next level.”

“We eagerly anticipate hearing about how this Elgin mom transformed a unique idea that  provides pleasure and fun to many other mothers and children across the country.”

Burns added, “We warmly welcome guests to attend our meetings to find out more about WIM Fox Valley and our mission of women inspiring and mentoring.”
