We rise by lifting others.
Everything we do at Stripe & Stare is about women and empowering each other. Our company was founded on the belief that you should do to others as you would have them do to you, and we’re proud to support some brilliant charities who are working hard to make the world that bit brighter. Since we launched in 2017, we've supported some incredible charities.
During 2024, the Stripe & Stare Foundation was set up by Co-Founder Nicola Piercy. This initiative provides free business support and mentoring for female entrepreneurs in early-stage businesses, funded by Stripe & Stare. With less than 2% of investment funding going to female founders in the UK in 2023, despite 20% of businesses being founded by women. So far, the foundation has advised over 30 businesses.
In April 2024 our co-founders, Katie and Nicola, visited Downing Street as part of the Buy Women Built group. BWB showcases amazing brands built by women to help profile female entrepreneurs and harness the power of consumer spending.
We offer every employee an annual volunteer day, allowing them to meaningfully contribute to personal causes in the community.
