We love when a company puts their money where their public pledge to support Black women is. In partnership with the New Voices Foundation, Barefoot Wines has chosen its recipients for their 2021 #WeStanForHer grant, which celebrates, recognizes, and uplifts Black women-owned businesses and their founders' unique journeys. 

"The #WeStanForHer program is a celebration of the Black community. To continue to see positive change, Barefoot is committed to recognizing the talents and gifts that stem from resilient Black-women," says Shannon Armah, Sr. Associate Brand Manager for Barefoot. 

"As a brand that strives to bring people together by creating moments of fun for everyone, directly supporting the efforts of Black women-owned businesses is essential to our mission. We stand to learn a lot from the Black community and, true to our values, Barefoot will always listen to the inspiring voices."
