How do Special Gifts help disabled entrepreneurs?​

One of the significant barriers disabled entrepreneurs face is the ability to promote their products cost-effectively.  Special Gifts curate their products into gift boxes. They also provide a marketplace to sell their products at no cost to disabled people or businesses supplying products.

It was presented to our outgoing Chairperson last evening and she was completely blown away by it.  She especially loved the fact the products were sourced from companies who support people with disabilities.  Her wee girl has Down syndrome and she is passionate about seeing people with DS live their best lives."
