OUR MISSION
The OurWhisky Foundation is a non-profit organisation, established in March 2022, to recognise, support and empower women working in whisky around the world, while advocating for a more inclusive and diverse industry.
Through collaboration with the global whisky community, the OurWhisky Foundation aims to challenge whisky’s outdated gendered image and help women to thrive in their careers.
The Foundation offers mentorship through our Atonia programme plus seminars and workshops, all designed to help women successfully progress within the industry.
Our community memberships are for all those working within the whisky industry to connect, share ideas, learn and contribute toward a more equitable spirit for all. You can discover inspirational content with expert and industry leaders in our online magazine, The Cut.
As a non-profit, the Foundation does rely on support from the industry. For more information on our sponsors and how you can support us through sponsorship or a more bespoke partnership, visit our Support page.
