the history
HOW DEET STARTED

…We have a passion that is driven towards Empowering people with disabilities through economic opportunities and promoting full participation.

The Disability Economic Empowerment Trust (DEET) was established as a Broad-Based Black Economic Entry to build up a diversified portfolio of equity holdings that would be used to create economic opportunities for people with disabilities

The ultimate beneficiaries of DEET are the South Africans with disabilities who receive services from NGOs under the umbrella of the Disabled Persons of South Africa (DPSA) and other associations which have been established to derive benefits for disabled people.
