ABOUT LE GOURMET
Cynthia McKay began Le Gourmet Gift Basket, Inc. as a small home-based
business in Denver, Colorado in 1992. Since then, Le Gourmet Gift
Basket, Inc. has expanded under Cynthia's direction both
internationally and domestically with 410 operating distributorships.
The Le Gourmet Corporate Headquarters is a wonderfully colorful and
warm building. Many people wonder why we chose this structure as
opposed to an office building. It is our primary interest to teach
individuals all aspects of the gift basket business, especially when
you are running your business from home. We made the decision to move
out of our office building and renovate a structure that will emulate a
home in many ways. So, when you come visit us in Colorado, kick your
shoes off and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea while we introduce you to
your new adventure.

ABOUT CYNTHIA McKAY, LE GOURMET CEO

Cynthia’s educational background has given her a great deal of
versatility as she lends a hand in this growing market with studies in
art at the University of London, England and a Doctorate Degree from
the University of Denver College of Law.
Listed in Who's Who Among American Law Students, Cynthia excelled
both locally and nationally as an up and coming entrepreneur and
advisor to those wanting a career as a home based business person.
Cynthia's philosophy emphasizes the fact that security is found in
self-employment. She has developed the practical economics of a
home-based business so that profit is high, overhead is low, and as a
self-employed individual, morale is great!
While Cynthia strives for the success of her own company, her
efforts to help others succeed in their ventures has won her honors,
including Women in Business Advocate of the Year Award from the Small
Business Administration for her accomplishments in the development of
business opportunities for women.
Cynthia has also received awards such as the Entrepreneurial Woman
of the Year, the Blue Chip Enterprise Award by the U.S. Chamber of
Commerce, and the American Associations of University Women
Trailblazer's Award.
Cynthia not only receives recognition for her abilities to be a
leader in the industry, but hundreds have benefited from Le Gourmet’s
success. Since the inception of the war with Iraq, Cynthia also
developed the Treats for Troops organization, which provides snacks,
magazines, toiletries, books, and newspapers from home to men and women
stationed overseas in Iraq and Afghanistan. She has received numerous
accolades from military officers thanking her for supporting our troops
during these difficult times. The Treats for Troops is funded solely
through personal donations made by Le Gourmet CEO Cynthia McKay.
Cynthia has also been nationally recognized in publications such as
Woman’s Day, USA Weekend, and Good Housekeeping for her overwhelmingly
generous efforts in charitable donations. She has founded Purses For
Paws and Heels for Hounds, an animal rescue fund that has helped
thousands of animals in need. This organization collects designer bags
and shoes as well as other items to be auctioned off on EBay with all
proceeds going to help injured and abandoned animals. In fact, a large
percentage of Le Gourmet distributorship and basket sales are donated
to fund medical care for animals.
Cynthia McKay has been an animal lover all of her life. Several
years ago an experience changed her feelings from caring to intense
passion for animals when she heard on the news that a dog had been hit
by a car, left for dead and would in fact die if unless someone would
come forward and pay the medical and surgical costs. Cynthia turned her
car around and went to the vet hospital where the payment was made and
surgery commenced immediately. From that time, Cynthia realized the
need for funding to save animals across the country. She provided the
crates necessary for the Humane Society to rescue and transport animals
from the Hurricane Katrina site. She paid for the vaccinations and
other medical treatment for the feline and canine Katrina victims as
they arrived in Colorado.
Le Gourmet has a long list of charities who receive special
volunteer work from Le Gourmet Staff Members as well as significant
donations throughout the year. Some of those organizations include:
PAALS FOR LIFE, a non-profit organization providing animal
companionship to the elderly, The Salvation Army, Big Brothers-Big
Sisters, ARC, Jerry's Kids, The North Shore Animal League as well as a
variety of snimal shelters across the country. Le Gourmet has also been
recognized for their tireless efforts in food donation for shelters and
indigent individuals throughout Colorado.
