See you in 2026!
Thank You for Making the 2025 GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge a Success!
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated in this year’s GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge 5K, Fun Run, and Kids Dash for Down Syndrome! The event was a tremendous success, and we’re already looking forward to making it even bigger and better next year.
We were thrilled to welcome over 100 runners, along with countless kids and families, to McAlpine Creek Park in Charlotte on Sunday, May 4th—all coming together in support of GiGi’s Playhouse Charlotte.
A huge thank you to our sponsors, participants, and GiGi’s families for making the day so fun, memorable, and meaningful. Your support helps us raise critical funds for our free therapeutic, educational, and fitness programs that empower individuals with Down syndrome in our local community.
We can’t wait to see you next year!
Your Support Changes Lives

"Time flies when you're having fun, and that's what the Playhouse is. Everyone genuinely cares about each other, and we have a great time together."
