Socially Responsible Gifts
At Qua, we are deeply committed to supporting meaningful causes in Singapore and the non-profit organisations that work tirelessly to make a difference.
We extend our CSR efforts by showcasing the artistry of talented individuals with special needs, while fostering greater awareness and appreciation for their creativity within the wider community.
QUA x ART:DIS
We have been working with special needs, differently-abled artists since 2011, creating a revenue stream for the artists. In doing so, we immortalise their creations, allowing them to sell more than just one painting at a time.
We were the first in Singapore to work with the Pathlight School, and are now, we collaborate extensively with ART:DIS (Arts & Disability Singapore) to introduce a collection of gift premiums featuring the artwork from ART:DIS’ Arts for Livelihood and Employment (ALIVE) Programme.
All artists earn royalties from the sale of their merchandise and artwork commissions.
