Volunteer Spotlight: Meet Malek and Samara Attie

October 1, 2021

     

This brother/sister duo have been hitting the streets (Cass Street to be exact!) helping spread the word about our Cass TREAT Cares event on October 23rd!

” This has been so much fun. Every time we
hang out at GiGi’s, we leave happier
than when we got there!”
– Malek Attie

Malek and Samara learned about GiGi’s Playhouse by stumbling upon our Donut Run last year.  Since then they have been busy around the Playhouse doing a multitude of jobs – fitness coaches, Playhouse organizers, program assistants, and fantastic Playhouse Ambassadors!

“Everyone is so nice and so much fun!
We feel like GiGi’s is our family!”
– Samara Attie

We are are very fortunate these two found time between their school work, swim team, jui jutsui, guitar, gymnastic, and unicycle riding to help at GiGi’s Playhouse!!
