Reaching New Heights

Can you believe that GiGi’s Playhouse Fort Wayne has been open less than seven months?! We are reaching new heights and we could not have done it without YOU!

2000 participants

On August 12th, we welcomed our 2,000th participant through our doors! Our community has been incredibly generous with their time, talent and donations. Our committed volunteers have donated over 1,444 hours of their time. Without the generosity of our donors, we would not have been able to provide over 2,639 FREE educational and therapeutic-based program hours!

We also could not have achieved these milestones without our inspiriting Playhouse families! We have heard a child say his name for the first time. A teen used skills from Cooking Club to make his family eggs. Our GiGi University students are losing weight, gaining confidence and increasing their fitness levels on a weekly basis!

Words could never begin to express our gratitude for helping us change the way our community sees Down syndrome. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you all for embracing and celebrating GiGi’s Playhouse Fort Wayne and our Playhouse families!
