Volunteer Spotlight- Jessica DeVries

Volunteer Spotlight- Jessica DeVries, Literacy Tutor

Hello everyone! My name is Jessica DeVries and this will be my first time volunteering with GiGi’s Playhouse. I graduated from Aurora University this past December and I am hoping to become an Occupational Therapist in the future! I love doing anything active and outdoors, including biking, going on walks, tennis, and working out! I am excited to volunteer this spring because I love working with children and want to gain more experience working with children with Down syndrome!

Welcome to the team, Jessica!!!
