John, Derek, and Luis are part of our logistics crew, ensuring every order gets where it needs to go. All three are members of the deaf community, and proud to wear the Patioslife name. “It’s not just a job — it’s a place where we feel seen,” they told us after this hike, where they bonded over nature and purpose.

Meet Dora, one of our incredible support team members. She joined us through a local job access program and quickly became known for her calm presence and thoughtful coordination. Fluent in ASL, Dora plays a key role in bridging communication between our hearing and non-hearing staff, helping ensure everyone on the team feels connected, respected, and included.

On community days, our team volunteers to host local families for a bit of fun under the sun — and our umbrellas. Here, Marcus (warehouse team lead) helps kids enjoy the shade while their parents learn about inclusive hiring. It's a reminder that good design can bring people together, in every sense.

Through a long-term partnership with local government programs, we actively hire individuals with disabilities — especially those who are deaf or hard of hearing. While often left out of traditional hiring systems, they are at the heart of our team, contributing to everything from customer service to warehouse operations.

We believe in giving back to the people who give so much — to their communities, their students, and their country. That’s why we’ve partnered with GovX to offer an exclusive 10% discount to active military, veterans, first responders, and educators. It’s a small gesture of appreciation, but one we’re proud to offer.

With every order, 3% of your purchase goes directly toward welfare programs that provide critical aid, daily essentials, and job support for people with disabilities.

Because real change doesn’t happen in words — it happens through action.

And it’s your support that makes it all possible.
