A new look and new inspiration for Easterseals
For nearly 100 years, Easterseals has been changing the way the world defines and views disabili- ties. We make profound, positive
differences in people’s lives every day.
Now more than ever, the challenges in the disability com-
munity are more complex and the definition of disability is broad, going beyond physical conditions to include invisible, emotional, social and educational challenges.
To respond to these important shifts and re-introduce the organization to the public in a clear, more modern way, Eas- terseals has embarked on a brand renaissance. The new look is in the form of a brighter logo, a new spin on the established name, Easterseals, and a refined brand voice that will further energize long-time supporters, as well as inspire a new gen- eration of friends.
There is also a new tagline: “Taking on disability togeth- er,” which speaks to the “collaborative work across affiliates, within our communities, alongside the people we serve and with you, our loyal supporters.”
Every day, Easterseals breaks down barriers, dispels stereo- types, overcomes obstacles and challenges attitudes and per- ceptions about people with disabilities and their potential.
This can’t be done alone. It takes a team. Thank you for be- ing part of our team. d
