About Us

D.C.-based social enterprise. The Fellowship Program integrates holistic and experiential
learning, challenging fellows to apply their knowledge in their thriving, real-world bakery.
Dog Tag supports our fellows, as well as our growing alumni network (currently at 213

transition—both personally and professionally—from military to civilian life.
