ABOUT US
The Makeup on Wheels Foundation was founded by Stephanie Debes, a woman who is part of the disabled community; a community that is so often overlooked by the rest of the world.
Stephanie is a graduate of St. John’s University with a BA in Hospitality Management and Event Planning. She is also a certified beauty and special effects makeup artist and a New York State licensed and NCEA certified esthetician. Despite her education and specialization in the beauty field, potential employers could not see past her disability.

ABOUT STEPHANIE
"My name is Stephanie Debes. I am the founder of The Makeup on Wheels Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to serving the needs of the disabled community. I am also a NYS Licensed & NCEA certified Esthetician, a makeup artist in SFX & Beauty, Event Planner and Disability Awareness Activist.
I was born with Cerebral Palsy Spastic Quadriplegia as a result of medical malpractice. All four limbs are affected, leaving me to use a motorized wheelchair 24/7. My condition limits my ability to perform most everyday tasks and renders me dependent on others. I was born five months premature. Doctors told my parents that I wouldn’t last three days. Twenty-eight years later, I’m defying the odds every single day."
