Rockstar #9 – Meet Darrian

There’s only 1 more day in our 10 day blog series. Tomorrow we will highlight the rockstar leaders and volunteers that made the GiGi Prep & Achievers programs possible this spring.

Today, we’d like you to meet Darrian!

Darrian is quiet artist with a great smile.

Darrian’s favorite program at GiGi’s is the tutoring program where she works hard at increasing her literacy and speech skills. Culver’s is her favorite place to eat and she wouldn’t mind working there in the future. Drawing and taking photos were her favorite lessons this session, which are things she is good at doing.

A few fun facts about Darrian are that she has a dog, was a cheerleader and her favorite color is orange.

Darrian she won the Amazing Artist award for her artwork!

P.S. Darrian is like Matthew (featured earlier in the series) and comes from an hour away to participate in the free purposeful programs here at GiGi’s. We thank them for their time and commitment!
