We are thrilled to announce our new space! We’ve partnered with Procter & Gamble Singapore to establish their in-house café that aims to do more than just serve coffee—it’s about creating genuine employment opportunities for persons with disabilities and special needs within a corporate environment. For the first time, we are expanding our offerings beyond our usual espresso-based drinks to include local favourites like kopi and kaya toast.

Thanks to the support from Procter & Gamble Singapore, this café will also serve as a training ground for internships with SPED students, providing them with valuable real-world experience and a pathway to employment with Foreword Coffee. Additionally, we have dedicated space for social enterprises to showcase and sell their merchandise, starting with .gifting as our first featured partner.

This initiative represents a meaningful step towards realizing what inclusive workplaces can look like—one cup of coffee (and one kaya toast) at a time.

Foreword Coffee, located on Jalan Tan Tock Seng in Singapore, is a coffee shop that stands out for its commitment to social responsibility. The cafe's recent Impact Report highlights their approach to tackling unemployment among Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) in Singapore. In 2022, 87% of the team consisted of individuals with disabilities or those with mental health needs. This dedication to inclusivity and diversity is admirable and sets Foreword Coffee apart from other cafes.

In addition to their social responsibility efforts, Foreword Coffee also offers delicious food and drinks. Their summer holidays promotion is a great deal for those spending time at NUS - any drink on the menu can be enjoyed for only $2.50 when you purchase a hearty rice bowl between 12pm-1pm. Don't miss out on this lunch deal!
