Justin Hightower: My Journey To Acceptance
When the Acceptance Pledge was shared with Acceptance Insurance employees across the country, Justin Hightower was deeply moved. He shared a video of his passionate reading of the pledge on our internal web site that captured the attention of the company leadership, and got him an invitation to meet football legend Eddie George and to share his story.
Now we want to share Justin’s inspirational journey to Acceptance with you.
The goal of the Acceptance Pledge is to inspire action – and if you get inspired to make a video of the pledge, we’d love to see it.
Make sure to @acceptanceinsurance and use #EveryoneIsSomeone or #pledgeacceptance.
And now, on with the show.
I knew something had to give, I just didn’t know when.
