March is always special.
It’s International Women’s Day.
It’s a moment to celebrate women.
To amplify women.
To back women.
But for us, it’s also personal.
As two female founders building Bhangra Blends from scratch, we know first-hand how hard it can be to access funding, support and opportunity.
We’ve pitched rooms where we were the only women.
We’ve been underestimated.
We’ve been told to “think smaller”.
And we’ve also been lifted by incredible women who believed in us when we needed it most.
So this March, we’re doing something that feels aligned with who we are.
What is Raise Her?
For the whole of March, 30% of every online order will go towards funding a female founder, in collaboration with Female Founders Rise.
Not profit.
Not “when we can afford it.”
Revenue.
Because backing women shouldn’t be conditional.
Every can you buy this month doesn’t just support our small business.
It directly supports another woman building hers.
Why This Matters?
The reality is:
-
Female founders receive a fraction of total venture funding.
-
Access to capital is still one of the biggest barriers to growth.
-
So many brilliant ideas never get the chance to scale.
We were lucky enough to raise our first round of funding, but we know how rare that is.
Raise Her is our way of paying that forward.
Founded by Women. Funding Women.
Bhangra Blends was created to celebrate culture, identity and bold flavour.
But it’s also about representation.
Two young South Asian women launching a drinks brand in an industry that doesn’t look like us? That’s not common.
And we don’t want to be the exception.
We want more women building.
More women raising.
More women winning.
How You’re Part of This:
When you shop online with us this March:
You’re not just buying a cocktail or mocktail.
You’re helping fund a female founder.
We’ll be sharing updates on who we support and the impact we make, because transparency matters.
And truly, from us to you, thank you.
This campaign isn’t a marketing gimmick.
It’s personal.
