Why GiGi’s Exist…

Why GiGi’s Exists

 

What is your very first thought when you hear “Down syndrome”?

Positive? Hopeful? HEROIC?
Do you see your child growing up with self-confidence?
Exercising regularly and eating healthy? 

YES!!!

Now envision your child success in school.
Working a meaningful job!
Volunteering time to help others!

YES!!!

How about just being happy?
How about having LOTS of friends?
How about being generous with their time and heart?

YES!!!

All of this describes YOUR CHILD!

Beautiful, courageous, capable and ALWAYS worthy of
acceptance, generosity and kindness!

We understand that many families are first time parents and they need us. Many young parents do not expect, or know in advance of their child’s diagnosis, and they need renewed hope and genuine acceptance from day one.

At GiGi’s Playhouse families are never alone. From a prenatal diagnosis to career skills, we make a lifetime commitment to remain by their side. Families are empowered with all the tools their child needs to succeed!
