GLOBAL FEMALE BARTENDING SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION

Calling all women ready to shake up hospitality!

The Double Dutch Female Bartending Scholarship returns for its 7th year. Created by Joyce and Raissa de Haas, this programme supports women building long-term careers in hospitality - from behind the bar to future leadership roles.

Women power the hospitality industry, yet hold only a small share of senior leadership positions. We’re committed to helping change that by providing skills, confidence and community.

Who It’s For

All experience levels welcome. Ideal for women working behind the bar or in hospitality, building drinks skills or pursuing long-term careers in hospitality or management.
