Hey there.

Sunrise Sisterhood is a social enterprise created to shine a light on the women who inspire us.* It's our mission to cultivate connections through shared experiences, celebrating each other's successes and providing encouragement through challenges. We do this through these three core focuses:

✧ Events, adventures and retreats

✧ Treat boxes and a pop-up store 

✧ Online community group

  

*Boys, we know this is probably feeling less relevant to you right now, but we also know you care about the women in your life, so please keep reading.

Our business is built on three values:

Connection. Collaboration. Community.

  

Connection.

We find strength in our togetherness and rise by lifting others. 

Our events will be focused on finding common ground and connecting with likeminded women. Fancy a mindfulness retreat? Have you always wanted to hike a mountain? Or go swimming in the ocean? If you'd rather just chat over martinis, that's our vibe too. While we have tonnes of ideas, we'll be led by our community and work together to design inclusive events we can all get excited about.

Collaboration.

We believe in collaboration, not competition.

For female creatives, makers and entrepreneurs, there is so much we can gain by supporting one another. Our treat boxes will enable female-led businesses to showcase their products alongside other complimentary brands. With an emphasis on sustainability and social impact, these boxes will make ideal gifts or self-care treats.

In the future, we'd love to open a pop-up store at festivals and markets. Imagine a treasure trove of essentials, goodies and gifts. While we keep our fingers crossed for 2021, we're focusing on treat boxes in the meantime.

Community.

In sisterhood, we are empowered.

This is where it all began. We started a small group on Facebook to have a safe and supportive space to share stories, recommendations and show each other a little love. We would love to see this group continue to grow and bloom. It's entirely free to join, so check it out if you're keen to get involved.

Treat boxes.

Do you know someone who would love Sunrise Sisterhood? Awesome. Is that person you? Even better. Our ethical treat boxes empower women and support small business. Because we can purchase products in bulk, the boxes offer incredible value for money. There's no subscription and you can choose to send them straight to loved ones - saving you the time and cost of delivering gifts.

Our founder.

A free-range female with a thing for cacti, Sami Mauger is a proud feminist with more than a bucket full of passion and drive. With a background in events, she's also no stranger to running a business, having launched her jewellery brand Catch The Sunrise in 2017 through Crowdfunder. No (wo)man is an island, and it's the support and encouragement of her long-suffering partner, family and friends that have allowed her to take a leap of faith in creating Sunrise Sisterhood.

Why we need funding.

There are many, many things we'll need to spend money on to get Sunrise Sisterhood up and running. Branding, website, stock for the treat boxes, packaging, event costs... we won't bore you with all the details. The pop-up shop is one of the biggest investments for our brand new business. We're going to need a structure, display furniture, signage, lighting and stock. Don't forget the pitch fees and insurance. Less exciting, but costly.
