The Joy Parade is more than a book tour - it's a movement on the move.

The Joy Parade is the book tour celebrating The Joy Exchange, written by ESP, Inc. CEO Laura Hope Whitaker.  

ESP, Inc. is a nonprofit that creates transformative experiences for individuals with disabilities and their families, changing communities for the better. Java Joy, an employment program of ESP's, exists to create experiences of unmatched joy through moments of engagement with people of all abilities.

Taking the helm of the nonprofit at just 19 years old, Laura shares the lessons and joy that she has received from ESP's members over the last twenty years. 

100% of proceeds from The Joy Exchange fund programs at ESP.

Loverly Grey, founded by influencer and entrepreneur

Brittany Sjogren, is more than a fashion and lifestyle brand,

it is a community built on encouragement, authenticity, and purpose.

What began as a personal style blog has grown into a multi-platform brand reaching millions of women nationwide. At its core, Loverly Grey exists to help women feel confident in what they wear and deeply encouraged in who they are, using influence as a tool to uplift, not just inspire.

Brittany is joining The Joy Parade not as a passing participant, but as a committed advocate. Her belief in ESP’s mission is longstanding and deeply personal. Brittany was invited to join Laura because her platform has reach, and reach brings responsibility.

 

She is using that platform intentionally to shine a light on people of all abilities, to amplify ESP’s mission, and to help spread joy far beyond the parade route.
