“Easter Seals has helped me in so many ways, creating friendship, boosting my self-esteem, and feeling included. When I enter the Easter Seals building, my disability is left at the door. Everyone is always considered equal at Easter Seals and that is very important. I can’t wait to represent Easter Seals and share the importance of their programs. I’m looking forward to this year, being the 2022 Easter Seals Ambassador. I know it will be an amazing experience and many opportunities for me.” – Brandon Bowen
