"Christmas is forever, not for just one day. For loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away”.  
- Norman Wesley Brooks 

Please join us on Saturday, July 13, 2024, for an evening of Christmas Magic as we celebrate our participants and raise funds in support of our “Believe in Our Build” campaign to bring the first GiGi’s Playhouse to South Carolina.

Dress in your best Christmas inspired cocktail attire and enjoy an evening of Christmas Wonder.   Our Gala will include cocktails, dinner, a silent auction, a live auction, raffles, pictures with Santa & Mrs. Claus, 321 Adoption, dancing and so much more.

GiGi’s Playhouse’s mission is to change how the world views Down syndrome and send a global message of acceptance for all.  We change lives through the consistent delivery of FREE therapeutic-based, educational, and career development programs to individuals with Down syndrome and their families through a replicable playhouse model. As we move toward our grand opening in 2024, we are excited to bring the very first GiGi’s Playhouse Down Syndrome Achievement Center to South Carolina.

Thanks to the generosity of our founding partner, City Wide Facility Solutions, our buildout is now funded. However, we must be ready to fully support our families the day we open. Help bring Christmas early to GiGi’s Playhouse Charleston by filling our playhouse with the equipment, resources and supplies needed so we can best serve our beautiful Down syndrome community!

Bring an unwrapped Christmas Gift from our Amazon wish list for a free raffle ticket.

Don’t feel like driving home after a night of celebrating, be sure to reserve your room at the Charleston Marriott Hotel.  Group Rate is $249.  Reservations must be made by 06/28/2024.
