ourmagic
We empower people who have disabilities by providing employment and a platform to share their individual stories and advocate for others.
After experiencing our program, participants will have a better understanding and appreciation for individual differences. This will impact their future interactions, spread empathy, and create a more collaborative and inclusive environment.
Empathy is most
readily triggered when
we are exposed to
individual stories.
