Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania – Something different from Eric is more than just a store.
It is a place where people with disabilities can learn, work, find independence and grow.
The place opened in 2015, when Bernadette Wheeler and her husband decided to create something they could name their son Eric.
Born with Down syndrome, Eric is now 30 years old and is the inspiration behind Something Different By Eric.
Inside, you’ll find unique gift ideas featuring everything from sports memorabilia to items for dog and cat lovers.
They try to find women-owned businesses and articles that will inspire the next generation.
In the store, Eric works as a receiver, inventory and business ambassador.
They hope to expand the business to include others with disabilities who work in the store and do programming to support and advocate for families with disabled members.
