Can you believe we're lucky enough to have this woman as our mentor?
Holly Child, everybody! She's President and CEO of Wilmington Downtown, Inc. and officially an Associate Producer for our feature film A Song For Imogene.
The Honeys got linked up with Holly last summer as part of our Minority Business Accelerator program at Genesis Block and she hit the ground running with us to strategize our financing goals. This woman has been in full support of our project, the themes, the passion behind it and our drive as female filmmakers. She has introduced us to folks who genuinely want to see us succeed and helped us launch a successful campaign with tons of exposure. We couldn't be more thankful for the time and energy she's gifted to us gals or her personal generosity that's pushed us to be 70% funded in just 12 days.
Thank you Holly. We love having you in the hive and can't wait to have you on set with us this spring! xxo

A drive to collect cold weather gear to distribute to downtown Wilmington’s unsheltered population has been jump started by Wilmington Downtown, Inc. (WDI). To kick off the Warm-Up Wilmington Collection Drive, WDI will donate $250 worth of new items to distribute to those in need. The Michelle Clark Team has joined WDI in their efforts by providing a portion of the socks collected during our Sock Drive.
WDI is still seeking donations of various new and unused items to help those without shelter cope during the cold weather. If you would like to donate, please call the The Michelle Clark Team at (910) 367-9767 to schedule a drop off. Thank you for giving!
We had a wonderful time celebrating the Aloft Wilmington at Coastline Center ribbon cutting yesterday with our friends at Wilmington Downtown, Inc. (WDI)!
Three years ago, Aloft kicked off construction with Clancy & Theys Construction Company and despite COVID interruptions, they have succeeded in building a beautiful and unique new hotel in Wilmington, NC.
With 125 hotel rooms, multiple event spaces, a rooftop bar and restaurant, a coffee and pastry café, they are equipped to be a driving force along the Cape Fear River.
Congratulations to David McLamb, his entire family, and the powerful team at Aloft. Welcome to the Wilmington community, we are so excited to watch you prosper!

Thank you Wilmington Downtown, Inc. (WDI) for showing us so much love. We appreciate all that you do for small businesses here in Wilmington!
At an event hosted by Wilmington Downtown, Inc. (WDI) on Tuesday morning, one of the partners in the development firm said the company hopes to see the start of construction soon on renovating the former Coca-Cola building at 921 Princess St., followed by more adaptive reuse.
We would like to thank Wilmington Downtown, Inc. (WDI) for making Ms Cat’s Cottage a recipient of the Facade Grant. The FIG Program was created to help downtown businesses and property owners make needed repairs and upgrades to their storefronts, while also working to beautify the overall look and feel of downtown Wilmington.
We're committed to the safety, health, & welfare of all - no matter your housing status. That's why in collaboration with Wilmington Downtown, Inc. (WDI), we've launched a pilot project to connect unhoused individuals to social service, reduce barriers to service, and close any gaps to accessing those services. Resources are available, and now, even more accessible.
THE SPECIFICS >>> WDI will hire a trained social worker – a new role within WDI’s MSD Ambassadors Program - who will be dedicated to helping people downtown access social services, which includes providing transportation, helping individuals obtain entitlements, overseeing case management, and other responsibilities related to reducing barriers to service.
