Here at Barefoot in Business we’re on a mission to empower our fellow female entrepreneurs in Uganda and inspire the next generation here in the UK. We’ve teamed up with some of Britain’s top women in business to create a free, virtual masterclass series for schools that trains pupils in the basics of business and enables them to curate and sell their very own tote bag Collection made in Uganda.

 
 
 

how it works

As a Barefoot sponsor you will have the opportunity to nominate a school to gift the program to or, if you prefer, we can match you up with one in your local area. Then, if you’re keen to take your engagement to the next level, your students and/or staff can get involved and help deliver the workshops in person and even host the launch of your school’s tote bag Collection.

This is a tailor-made opportunity for you to engage with your local community, celebrate your commitment to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and increase your talent pipeline - all the while helping fundraise for schools in your area. Sponsorship packages start at £2500 per school and can be customised to your budget and preferred level of engagement.

 
 
 
 

THE IMPACT

 
 
Barefoot in Business gives our  students the opportunity to put all their years of learning about business into practice through working with, supporting, and mentoring the next generation of young entrepreneurs in Glasgow.
— Professor Kathleen Riach, Adam Smith Business School
I would definitely recommend becoming a Barefoot in Business sponsor.  You get back more than you give, it feels good to be part of something bigger and to encourage the young businesswomen of the future to learn from our experiences.
— Nicola Crosbie, Moran Wealth Management
