BARTENDER

GLOBAL FEMALE BARTENDING SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION

Do you have the qualities needed to excel as a bartender? Whether you're already immersed in the field and looking to enhance your skills or aspiring to learn from industry experts, Double Dutch's Scholarship Programme might be the opportunity you've been seeking! As a business led by women, we have a deep commitment to celebrating women in the drinks and hospitality sector. Joyce and Raissa de Haas, the twin female co-founders of Double Dutch Drinks, hold a special passion for this cause. Regrettably, going into 2025, there is still a noticeable lack of representation in the industry, and we aim to address this issue through our innovative scholarship and mentoring initiative.
