Who doesn’t love getting snail mail and meeting a new friend?!

We started a pen pal program at #GiGisPlayhouseRaleigh with GiGi’s participants + members of the #GenerationG Youth Board and UNC Women’s Basketball.

Who doesn’t love getting snail mail and meeting a new friend?!

Our friends from GiGi’s have been busy writing letters to their new friends, sharing about who they are and what they love doing. With therapeutic & educational programs + activities such as Pen Pal matches, all FREE of charge to our families, our friends can find purpose.

Isn’t that what everyone wants, purpose & joy? Perhaps you too could write a note and drop it in the mail to a friend as an act of kindness during Down Syndrome Awareness Month!
