October is Down syndrome Awareness Month! Today we are celebrating our friend Caleigh!

Caleigh 1

I don’t have one favorite memory from GiGi’s, I have many things I am grateful for.  I love the
volunteers, they are such wonderful people, they are so sweet and so good with Caleigh.  I love the friendships Caleigh and I have made thanks to GiGi’s.  Last but not least, the programs are wonderful, and the fact that they are free is an added bonus! Caleigh loves going to GiGi’s and seeing her friends and playing, and she will for years to come. -Lisa, Caleigh’s Mom
