Day 6: Naperville Half Marathon & 5k charity runners and donors
Thank you to all our GiGi’s Playhouse Fox Valley charity partner runners and the generosity of our donors for Naperville Half Marathon and 5k. Each GiGi’s Playhouse runner agrees to raise a minimum of $200 to help support the FREE education and therapeutic programming offered at GiGi’s Playhouse Fox Valley.
Since 2016, Team GiGi’s has had over 70+ parents, family, and friends who have participated as charity partners. In the past 3 years, we have raised more than $ 36,000 to support programs such as 1:1 literacy tutoring, LMNOP, Destination Discovery, and Fantastic Friends.
This year we are excited to announce that we had over 20 charity runners and exceeded our fundraising goal of $25,000!
