Our GiGi’s Ambassador Program continues to work on creating their own blog for readers to get to know our participants a little more. Farzin has been a part of GiGi’s for over 10 years. He said he has gained a lot from our tutoring program and working with our very own volunteer Tom. Megan, who is our Career Program Manager, says that Farzin was chosen to be a part of Ambassador Program because of his willingness to work and give his all!<\/p>\n

The following was written by Farzin\"\"<\/a>:<\/p>\n

My name is Farzin Sharyari. I am 36 years old. At GiGi\u2019s Playhouse, I have participated in tutoring, cooking class, Ambassadors program, and GiGiFIT. My favorite program at GiGi\u2019s is all of the special events.\u00a0 I like to spend time with friends, going to fun events, and traveling around the world. A fun fact about me is that I like to write songs. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I am a part of the first group of GiGi Ambassadors. In this program, I am looking forward to learning about marketing strategies, social media, and advertisement. I am looking forward to being an Ambassador because I would like to represent GiGi\u2019s Playhouse. I want people to accept me for who I am. I would like to go into the community to help with fundraising and bring in more donations to the playhouse. One goal I have for the future is that I would like to write my own music, have a business, and work in creative advertising for GiGi\u2019s Playhouse. I would also like to help make videos to promote GiGi\u2019s Playhouse\u00a0 in the community.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you Farzin for your wonderful insight and letting us get to know you more! We are so honored to have you a part of so many programs. He brings such enthusiasm to each and every program you are involved in. Such a privilege to have someone like Farzin to want to advocate and want more people to get more involved in GiGi’s Playhouse just like him!<\/p>\n
