Sleek empowers persons with disabilities with Rainbow Centre
As a startup, Sleek has been on a mission to give back to the communities around us since day 1.
Partnering with Local Charity Organization
Under our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme, we have been partnering with local charity organization, Rainbow Centre, which supports persons with disabilities through education, support and training.
Sleek worked with Rainbow Centre’s Micro Business Academy programme since 2021. The programme equips parents of children with disabilities with entrepreneur skills to set up their home-based businesses, so that their children can be engaged in meaningful work opportunities. The purpose of this program aligns exactly with Sleek’s mission of empowering business owners and entrepreneurs.
Skill-based volunteering
Our amazing Sleekers volunteered their skills to serve as mentors, preparing customized business modules ranging from how to start a business, accounting and governance to marketing and sales tips to equip the parents with the necessary skills!

These webinars have been made available as masterclasses for all Rainbow Centre beneficiaries. The volunteers also conducted 1:1 business coaching with the families after the webinars to continue supporting them on their business journeys. Till this day, we have completed 50+ hours committed to skills-based volunteering.

Bringing Positive Social Impact
In addition to the Micro Business Academy programme, we also raised S$7,084 for Rainbow Centre’s new school in Dec 2021 via a dollar matching campaign between Sleek and employees.
We want to ensure that these individuals are meaningfully engaged, employed, and well-equipped to grow their businesses. At the same time, our volunteers are incredibly inspired with the enthusiasm to learn of these families.
It is in these visible transformations and positive social impact that keep driving Sleek forward in our mission to do good. Find out more about our community initiative with Rainbow Centre here:
