Inspired by her 3 children, Valen decided to pursue a career in the Social Service Sector. With the support of Singapore Univeristy of Social Sciences, she started Social Gifting to provide meaningful activities / passive income to people who are unable to leave home due to caregiving duties or physical constraints.

Come join her mission to empower the less fortunate to build on their strengths and enable them to live an enriching life with dignity.

Duygu is originally from Turkey, studied Chemical Engineering as a bachelor degree and pursued her MBA from Seoul National University. Before beginning her current position at Social Gifting she worked for one of the international advertising companies in Dubai.

Duygu was always eager to contribute to a positive change whether in a personal or professional level, that’s why she is very grateful for having the opportunity to use her expertise to support the mission of Social Gifting.

Jennifer's mission is to live by example in her life to inspire and transform dreams that matter into reality.
With a Professional Certified Coach with International Coaching Federation, she wants to use her coaching and training skills to add more value to social enterprise. She believes that when social enterprise fulfills their mission, they will in return, make a more significant impact for their chosen beneficiary.

With a degree in Accounting and Finance, Athena spent 17 years in the corporate world in Finance.

Now blessed with 2 daughters, she is grateful to be given this opportunity to give back to society through her work at Social Gifting, where the differently-abled can be recognised and empowered through their craftwork, thereby allowing them to lead meaningful, enriching and fulfilling lives.

Catherine decided to take bold steps to return to the workforce after providing a few years of caregiving duties to her family.

She hopes to join Social Gifting to provide meaningful work to the underprivileged and help them find meaning in life.

She is the go-to person when we need back-end support and helps to ensure all orders are delivered smoothly.

Equipped with passion and crafting skills, Aqilah is set to use her bubbly character to bring joy to the differently-abled crafters.

Aqilah is an avid toy collector and loves to bake. She hopes to put her positive energy to good use - to recharge the team and bring out the positive strength and attitude in the crafters.

Her tagline is "If there is a will, there is a way!"

As an empathetic and cheerful person, Xin Yun is always willing to take on the opportunity to do her part in making a difference in society.
