Merz Aesthetics North America has launched its front-of-jersey sponsorship deal with the North Carolina Courage women’s soccer team. Saturday, March 25, marked the 2023 opening game and fans had the opportunity to see the new Courage jerseys that are also featured in the virtual world on EA Sport’s FIFA video game.

Raleigh, North Carolina-based Merz Aesthetics, in partnership with Dress For Success Triangle, also invited guests to attend their mobile “confidence boutique” that accepted more than 100 gently used purses and work bags to donate to underserved women in the Triangle.  

Being made up of 74% women, Merz Aesthetics is the first in the medical aesthetics industry to invest in women’s soccer, aimed at fueling confidence and empowering women to be their most authentic selves, according to a Merz news release. The partnership is now officially in its second season.
