June Was Jumping here at GiGi’s Playhouse

What a month!  Besides all of our programming, a new session of GiGi U, the 5k Run, and the launch of our V-21 Vitamin Cookie we also hosted a site coordinator training for 10 Playhouses across the country and Mexico too!  It is always so wonderful to connect with the people who are running the Playhouses and provide them with all the tools they need to take their Playhouses to the next level.  

Having Mexico in “the house” was fantastic!  Ever since I heard about the mortality rate of Mexican children with DS I have wanted to help them.  So to have a Playhouse open and celebrating their lives in Queretaro Mexico is a dream come true.   We have been blessed with some generous donors from the states that are helping them expand their programming.  If you want to help them too, please email Eva Barba at  mexicoqro@gigisplayhouse.org or ngianni@gigisplayhouse.org    This location truly is saving lives and changing the way their country sees Down syndrome. We are so blessed to have them fighting for our kids.

We are also blessed to have each and every one of YOU fighting for our families too!  We truly could not do this without you.  Please continue reading to see all that you have made possible!  Thank you!
