Sometimes a client will make you something from their heart & you’ve gotta find creative ways to honor them. Please enjoy our “art gallery” that we hope to add more to🤣❤️

Not incapable. Just a different way of processing👏🏼❤️

This week, the President of the United States said this about a political rival:

“A president should not have learning disabilities.” He added: “Everything about him is dumb.”

I can’t let that pass without saying something.

I’m Mark Cronin, co-founder of John’s Crazy Socks. My business partner is John Cronin, my son, and John has Down syndrome. Together we built our company on a single belief: that people with differing abilities have something extraordinary to offer the world.

When the President suggests a learning disability disqualifies someone from leadership, I take that personally. And I think you should too.

Dyslexia is not a measure of intelligence. It is a different way of processing information. Some of the most remarkable people in history had dyslexia: Richard Branson, Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, John Lennon, Agatha Christie, Picasso. Some scholars suggest that George Washington was dyslexic. Different minds. Extraordinary impact.

At John’s Crazy Socks, more than half our colleagues have a differing ability. We don’t lower our standards. We rethink how work gets done. And what we’ve built together — the loyalty, the creativity, the genuine human connection at the heart of this business — could never have happened if we’d screened people out instead of welcoming them in.

Inclusion isn’t a favor we do for people. It’s how you build something worth building.

Words from leaders matter. When the most powerful person in the country tells the world that a learning disability makes someone unfit, that message lands in classrooms, in hiring offices, in the hearts of people who are already fighting to be seen.

We can do better. We must do better.

If you believe, as I do, that every person deserves a real chance to contribute, I hope you’ll share this post. Not as a political statement. As a human one.

John and I have spent nearly a decade proving what’s possible when you believe in people. We’re not stopping now. 🧦❤️

Let’s try this again! We’ve adopted 4 families in our local area (Greene & Clark County, Ohio) for Christmas. We are legitimately raising money for them to give presents directly and help with bills this holiday season. PLEASE consider donating as these families are close to us in multiple ways. ALL money is going to the families.

Please help us give families in our local community a good and decent Christ… Brandis Hillard needs your support for Make Christmas Special for Local Families

I’m amazed at the amount of hateful, awful people who can’t just scroll by a GoFundMe for needy families. Don’t donate. It’s that simple. And keep your hate to yourselves.
