2013 Calendar

2. What is 3E Love... ?
3E Love, LLC. is a social entrepreneurial experiment to
change the perception of disability. The company was
started by siblings Annie & Stevie Hopkins in 2007
with the intent of promoting their unique symbol and
social model of disability. The company's trademarked
International Symbol of Acceptance (wheelchair heart
logo) is the drive behind it's social mission to provide
the tools for others to embrace diversity, educate
society, and empower each other to love life. What
was once just a small Chicago disability pride clothing
brand is now an international movement of accep-
tance. People with disabilities are everywhere, and
thousands of t-shirts and other items later, so is the
3E Love message.
"3E Love is more than living disabled but is simply
about living. Everyone has the freedom to live their
life. We challenge you to do what you love, because
you'll meet some amazing people along the way, and
that, our friends, is how you'll enjoy this ride that 3E
Love calls, life.
Embrace diversity. Educate your community.
Empower each other. Love life."
- 3E Love Founder, Annie Hopkins (1984-2009)
