Mark here, John’s Dad. I’m taking over John’s weekly email today because I have news that only a very proud father can share.
This honor reflects what John has built with
John’s Crazy Socks, the jobs created, the donations made, the advocacy for people with differing abilities, and the happiness spread. And it reflects what he is building now with
Abilities Rising, our family of disability-owned businesses focused on creating opportunity and showing what people with differing abilities can do.
But here’s something John and I both want you to know:
You helped make this possible.
Your support - purchasing socks, sharing our posts, cheering John on - lifted a small idea into something bigger than we ever imagined. You’ve been part of John’s journey from day one, and this milestone belongs to our whole community.
John likes to say, “I’m just getting started.”
And he means it.
We have much more to share with you in the days ahead.
For now, please join me in celebrating this historic moment for John and for everyone who believes in the abilities of all people.
Thank you for being with us,
Mark
