Growing up with brothers with developmental disabilities, our founders Debra and Ryan developed a keener sense and understanding of the difficulties faced by Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) roles in society than most. This culminated in Deaf Dragons which was also founded and run by the pair, and finally in Society Staples in March 2015.
Fuelled by their experiences and a shared passion for social inclusion, they founded Society Staples to create conversations about PWDs while simultaneously imparting unique perspectives gleaned from interactions with PWDs through innovative platforms such as team building programmes, community outreach events, and school workshops.
In our first year, we have been featured in several media outlets such as the Vulcan Post, Straits Times and Channel NewsAsia. Society Staples is also the recipient of several awards such as President’s Challenge Social Enterprise Start-Up of the Year Award 2015 and the ASEAN-China Outstanding Young Start-Up Entrepreneur Award 2015.
