Spirit to partner with 10 Washington D.C. female-owned small businesses
WASHINGTON, D.C. (08/13/2025) – The Washington Spirit has partnered with local small businesses to launch “Shop Our Spirit”, a community campaign designed to promote exposure and awareness of majority female-owned businesses in the Washington D.C Metropolitan Area.
Shop Our Spirit features 10 local businesses of a wide variety that align with the club and player’s interests. The campaign will feature sustained social and matchday engagement along with offsite activations and branding with unique collaborations between the Spirit and the business.
“The Washington Spirit is more than a soccer club, we see ourselves as an integral part of the Washington D.C. community and keep that in mind in everything we do,” said Vice President, Community Development RaShauna Hamilton. “We are thrilled to partner with these 10 businesses that are led by incredible, talented women and can’t wait to see our fans and players experience all the amazing things they have to offer.”
“BLK FLWR MRKT is thrilled join the Shop Our Spirit campaign,” said Kehmari Norman, owner of Black Flower Market. “Over 90% of our customers – our Flower Buds – are women, and so it is an honor to be a part of an initiative that not only celebrates woman-owned businesses, but also the women that continue to make them thrive.”
