Barely Canadian Helps Foster Youth Thrive

Aired April 28, 2024: Barely Canadian is a family business that creates insanely soft sweaters, hoodies, onesies, sunsies, smittens, and other comfy apparel and accessories to keep you cozy, feeling at home, and layered in color, love and acceptance. Having both fostered and adopted from foster care, the founders are passionate about their mission to continue to serve foster youth, and to share the gifts these deserving and brilliant kids bring to our world. Barely Canadian's commitment goes beyond giving back to incredible organizations that support Foster Youth. They also train and hire Foster Youth within all of their entities: Barely Canadian, BC Branding and Fosterpreneur. As a social enterprise brand, they love putting a spotlight on Foster Youth in anyway they can - as models, photographers, helping us in the BC Clubhouse, delivering product, etc. 20% of their proceeds go to help foster youth. They have events coming up at Neiman Marcus, Westfield Topanga. In this podcast, Lisa Foxx chats with Kelly Slattery CEO of Barely Canadian, all about how their business works and how they are able to make a difference with these kids.
