About
and the story goes like this..
Here at doob®, we believe in no-nonsense comfort - if you didn't ask for it, you don't pay for it. This is why doob® bean bags are of good quality, and yet so affordable. We have a dream, that someday, every home will have a doob® to enjoy, that every person will know the comfort of a plush bean bag.
It is a huge and daunting task, yes, and were we any less strong we might have given up and let - god forbid - chairs(!) continue in their domination over human derriere-dom.
But we continue to dream of that day, and as we still have breath in our lungs, we shall carry the message of the doob®. We only ask that you let us into your heart and your home, and we will show you a comfort beyond all imagination.
doob®. because your butt deserves better.

Music For the Mind
"Music For the Mind 2014" - Love Action Project and SG 50for50
Love Action Project together with the 50for50 initiative, organised a 3-day music showcase “Music for the Mind” to raise funds and create awareness on Mental Illness for Singapore Association for Mental Health (SAMH).
During the showcase, popular local acts like Jack and Rai, and Singapore Char Siew Bao performed for the audience as they cozied up on comfy doob Bean Bags (of course). The event was also graced by former MP Lim Hwee Hua.
More than one in 10 people in Singapore will be stricken by mental illness in their lifetime, according to the Singapore Mental Health Study. Often, mental illness strikes the young; majority of mental illnesses occurred by 29 years of age. Many face depression, the commonest mental illness here. Others may be affected by alcohol abuse or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), an anxiety affliction characterized by obsessions, compulsive rituals, as well as intrusive thoughts and impulses.
Music For the Mind 2014 hopes in raising awareness for mental illness, to remove the stigma of mental health patients. For more info visit the SAMH website at http://www.samhealth.org.sg/.
