The 5K Is Coming

What are you doing on June 12? Don’t forget to head out to the GiGi’s Playhouse Chicagoland 5K. We’ve set up a Chicago team, so you won’t feel like you’re out there by yourself. Just select “Chicago Playhouse” under Team Affiliation on the registration page.

From there, you can set up your own fundraising page, soliciting support and donations from friends and family around the country (and world, if you’re that spread out). The money you raise from this event comes back to the Playhouse to support our operations and programming.

The 5K run and 1 mile walk are at a new location this year, and it’s always a great opportunity to see the difference we’re making throughout the area.
