Join Us for the 2023 GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge! 

Looking for how YOU and your family can change the world!?! Here’s a meaningful way to get involved with GiGi’s Playhouse Portland!  

Register here for our GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge 5K, 1 mile and Kids Dash for Down Syndrome on June 3rd at Mary S. Young Park in West Linn. It’s a fun and festive event where everyone is “moving” toward acceptance while raising awareness and support for the FREE programs offered in our achievement center.  

We will have bouncy houses, sno-cones, raffle prizes and more! And the amazing thing is… you can invite your family, friends and co-workers to join — whether in-person or cheering us on remotely.   

In honor of the 3rd copy of the 21st chromosome, the event costs $21 per registrant ($32.10 after May 15th) or a donation of any amount to your team.  All proceeds go toward our Portland Playhouse (opening this year) to bring FREE therapeutic, educational, and vocational programs to those families experiencing Down Syndrome! 

This is the perfect way to show your kids and your community that being accepting, being generous, and being kind IS who we are and what we stand for! So, get in the game! Click here to join The GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge.   

Let’s change the world and change the way the world views Down Syndrome!!!
