At Sri Dairy, a premium sweets manufacturer from the heart of Srivilliputtur, we believe in celebrating diversity and inclusivity in all forms. On this International Day of Sign Languages, we want to recognize the beauty of communication through sign language and express our solidarity with the Deaf community.
The Importance of International Day of Sign Languages
The International Day of Sign Languages, celebrated annually on September 23, highlights the vital role of sign language in promoting linguistic identity, access to education, and equality for the Deaf and hard-of-hearing communities worldwide. This day also serves as a reminder that everyone deserves the right to express themselves and be understood, regardless of the language they use.
A Gesture of Sweet Inclusion
At Sri Dairy, we recognize that food has always been a universal language that brings people together. Just like sweets have the power to create smiles, sign language bridges gaps in communication, fostering connection and understanding across communities. In this spirit, we believe in not only providing the finest traditional Indian sweets but also in creating a more inclusive environment for everyone.
How We’re Supporting Inclusion
To mark this special day, we at Sri Dairy are taking steps to ensure that everyone can enjoy our sweets, regardless of how they communicate. Here are a few ways we are working towards inclusivity:
-
Customer Support in Sign Language: We are exploring new ways to make our customer service accessible to the Deaf community, including video chat options where our team members will be trained to communicate in basic sign language.
-
Inclusive Packaging: Our future packaging designs will include simple sign language instructions to make product information accessible to all.
-
Community Initiatives: We are planning to collaborate with local Deaf communities to host inclusive events at our store in Srivilliputtur, where everyone can come together to celebrate the joy of sweets.
Join Us in Celebrating the Beauty of Sign Language
As we celebrate the International Day of Sign Languages, we encourage everyone to take a moment to learn a few signs, understand the challenges faced by the Deaf community, and appreciate the importance of accessible communication.
At Sri Dairy, we believe that inclusivity is as sweet as the delicacies we create, and we’re committed to making sure everyone can share in the joy of our premium sweets, whether they speak, sign, or simply smile.
By celebrating the International Day of Sign Languages, we hope to contribute to a world where communication is accessible, and every voice, whether spoken or signed, is heard and valued.
