We Accepted the GiGiFit Acceptance Challenge (GFAC)!

June 8, 2021

What a GREAT day we had on June 5th!  

We had 28 teams with 168 participants from around the country accept the challenge for GiGi’s Playhouse Atlanta and raise over $20K.As a network GiGi’s Playhouse had over 144,000 people move for acceptance.

We were one of 63 Challenge events put on by the GiGi’s Playhouse network and I could not be more proud of our city and community as we were one of the first LIVE 5k events to take place since the pandemic had started.

 

 

We had a competitive race, a fun Kids dash and a wonderful inspirational 1 Mile walk through beautiful Virginia Highland , all as re-enforcement for the Movement of Global Acceptance for All.

 

More photos to come!

 

Please note that the GFAC challenge does not end on June 5th, as a movement, we need to strive to Accept everyone as they are every day and to stand up for those who are not able to.  Please continue to share the pledge and ask friends, family, co-workers and more to support Acceptance for all.
