Josiah Website Launched to Encourage and Support the Disabled
Meet Josiah, who will enlighten you and teach you about empathy, dignity and the power of a positive attitude.
Nashville, TN, December 14, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Imagine what it’s like to be a wheelchair-bound child. Now, meet Josiah, who will enlighten you and teach you about empathy, dignity and the power of a positive attitude.
Josiah, along with his best friend Wheely, are charming illustrated characters created by Therese Carrier (president of HisWillBeDone Productions). Carrier has just launched a website based on the Josiah character. “I wanted to honor my brother,” she says. “Joe was severely disabled in a car accident and was wheelchair-bound until he passed away, several years later in 2004.”
Josiah’s stories are intended to spread a positive message of hope, joy and encouragement not only to the disabled, but to everyone. “Josiah has a remarkable can-do attitude and spirit,” says Carrier. “It’s something we can all use a little more of.” A newly-published book, Josiah’s School Fun Day, tells the first story about Josiah, Wheely, and their schoolmates Misty and Carter.
The website also features links to sites of interest for disabled children (and their parents), as well as an interactive coloring page and an official Josiah™ store. A series of greeting cards is in production, as are notebook stickers; a line of Josiah t-shirts is already available on the site in both youth and adult sizes.
A portion of the proceeds from sales on the site will be distributed by The Josiah Foundation to provide assistance to people across the U.S. who have physical and mental development disabilities. “There is worth and value in every individual who crosses our path,” says Carrier.
