## Corporate Social Responsibility
> Describe FabLabSG as social responsible citizen with regard to diversity, inclusiveness and sustainability.

> As part of that our initial focus is on Enable, so we can describe FabLabSGxE as a sub-chapter rather than the center of the message. This is consistent with FabLabSG mission being to empower makers to making things, not actually being an organisation focused on Enable.
### FabLabSG x Enable (FLSGxE)
> "There's only the Disabled and the Temporarily-Abled."
> What is FabLabSG x Enable
* Redirecting makers skillset towards Enabling solutions (via Challenges)
* Instiling Inclusivity in the makers mindset
* Facilitating CSR of corporate entities for the disabled community
> Why it was formed
* Existing solutions are either too expensive, or too complicated.
* Currently, there's no for custom solution provider for the disabled community.
* Existing 'DIY' solutions by individuals or community existed because there's a need to overcome challenges faced by disabled individuals. They usually lack the right technical expertise.
* While these solutions do improve the situation, its usually just a patch. Having the right expertise would improve existing solution or create new ones.
> Target communities and beneficieries. Who have we communicated with.
* Special Education institution
#### FabLabSG Challenge
> What are Challenges
* A cycle of processes to Address, Design and Make(Produce) a solution for issues brought up by the disabled communities.
*These issues includes various challenges faced by but not limited to the Special Education teachers & students, disabled individuals and their families, and the aging communites.
> What resources are needed to 'overcome' Challenges
* Expertise in the makers community. Engineers, programmers for more complex challenges.
* A facilitator to run and manage the Challenge for that cycle.
* Equipments and materials for the solutions.
* Funds to support the Challenge Cycle.
