Hayden living her best life!

Hayden  started her journey  at age 2 as the youngest child ever to be part

of the GiGi’s Literacy program in Hoffman Estates. She then moved to the

Deerfield Playhouse when it opened in 2019 and is still a member there.

Now at age 16, she is working as a volunteer at the House of Hope, a

nonprofit organization helping animals in Libertyville , Il.

Where Lisa, her supervisor, plus the whole staff there love and encourage her.

Her other activities besides attending Libertyville Hight School as a Sophomore are horseback riding at the Equestrian connection.

She plays Ella in the play Frozen at the Special gifts theatre. She attends

hip hop class at  Lake Forest parks and recreation.

Is a member of the Special Olympics swim team and soccer team. Also plays

special Olympics basketball . WOW, we, her family, are so proud of her!!!

A special thanks to Nancy and GiGi who keep on inspiring girls and boys to

achieve their given potential…. Their best life ever!!
