Founded on 23 June 2008 as a registered Charity with Institution of a Public Character status, the Singapore National Paralympic Council (SNPC) is focused on supporting and empowering Singapore's para athletes and is responsible for fielding Singapore teams for the ASEAN Para Games, Asian Para Games, Asian Youth Para Games, Commonwealth Games and Paralympic Games.
As a member of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC), SNPC is part of a worldwide social change movement, which uses the power of sport to positively influence community perceptions of people with disabilities and to promote a more diverse and inclusive society by educating and strengthening the values of the Paralympic Movement and Paralympic aspirations in Singapore.
In addition, SNPC also works closely with its corporate partners and sponsors to run various engagements and initiatives that include athlete ambassadorship for corporates, staff engagement, programme funding, hiring people with disabilities within their organisation.
