Flock's Lucky 13

Tomorrow (February 12^th) is the 13^th anniversary of Flock DC! We started off as a small (but mighty!) team, and have since evolved into a family of companies working to care for Washingtonians through every stage of life and nesting.

Here's a quick look back at a few of our biggest milestones over the last thirteen years:

• 2009: Nest DC established
• 2015: Roost DC established
• October 2015: Nest DC mural by James Bullough debuts
• 2016: Starling DC established
• September 2016: 1^st La Clinica del Pueblo Casino Night
• February 2018: District Microgrant Launch
• September 2019: Ruth Bader Ginsberg mural by Rose Jaffe debuts
• 2020: BirdWatch DC established
• 2021: birdSEED Foundation established
• April 2021: 1^st Home closed with the support of birdSEED Housing Grants

To celebrate our #lucky13, we’re hosting a giveaway on Instagram featuring 13 local businesses! Enter at @flock-dc on Instagram for a chance to win a gift card to some of our favorite businesses (and some Flock goodies if you’re interested!).

In the (currently virtual) Flock offices, there are hushed whispers of some internal celebration plans (we love a good surprise). We’re big on celebrating the wins – from the everyday to the personal to the big #lucky13 wins. It’s safe to say- we go the extra mile to celebrate our team. It’s important to remember that the magic doesn’t happen without this team. They are the secret sauce that keeps our Flock best in class and utterly unstoppable.

Honestly, it's impossible to say what we are proudest of, but we are certainly full of gratitude during this special Flock birthday! We can’t move forward without taking the time to reflect on the wins and the incredible journey we’ve had thus far. We're so thankful to our clients, tenants, vendors, and community partners for working with us as we take steps to build the more just & equitable future that we want to be a part of, leading with empathy every step of the way.

Stay tuned to #FlockTalk to keep abreast of our new adventures and hopefully, lots of surprise parties!
