Shirah Benarde might be only 22 years old, but she has already helped keep over half a million people safe from drink spiking with her viral company NightCap. NightCap is a revolutionary brand that was featured on Shark Tank in 2021, resulting in a passionate partnership with Lori Greiner.
Shirah launched NightCap when she was just 16, after a close friend had her drink spiked during a night out, and worked tirelessly to ensure the product would be something her customers would feel comfortable bringing along on a night out with friends. Inspired, she went to her mother’s closet, grabbed a pair of pantyhose, cut them up, and attached them to a scrunchie to create the first NightCap prototype.
Since its inception, Shirah has not saved just one person, but over HALF A MILLION people worldwide. NightCap has sold over 600,000 units in over 40 countries, and partnered with over 170 major universities, including LSU, Ole Miss, FSU, University of Michigan, Yale and Penn State, furthering their mission to promote safety and vigilance and influence a wider cultural shift.
