At GiGi’s, our mission is to inspire and empower individuals with Down syndrome to succeed in life but also to spread awareness and acceptance for ALL. Dreams, hopes, and plans for the future are the driving force! We set high expectations and encourage everyone to achieve their “Best of All” in everything they do. Please consider supporting this important event as a participant, donor, or sponsor.

Your Support Changes Lives
"Individuals with Down syndrome have the exact wants, needs, hopes, and dreams as everyone else. At GiGi’s Playhouse, Down syndrome does not define an individual. The playhouse has allowed our son, Jordon, to explore his potential as he prepares to leave high school and enter the adult world. "
- Diane Meyer, mom of Jordon
