Deaf People as Helpful Couriers

In the Philippines, Lamoiyan Corporation (Yes, Hapee Toothpaste) actively hires people with hearing disabilities for its factories. As minimal opportunities for the deaf are concerned, here's another great business idea from India. It's called Mirakle Couriers which only hires deaf workers to serve as pickup and deliver letters and parcel.

Not only does Mirakle Courier hire deaf people, the company also empowers them from making their own decisions to the finer points of professional grooming. Founded in 2008, the company has grown by leaps and bounds, and has added the likes of Indian Hotels Company and Johnson Controls in its roster of companies.

Will social entrepreneurs follow this trend locally? How about giving more opportunities to people, who might be lacking in some physical aspects but are awesomely more talented than normal, everyday people. Hear, hear!
