The Peanut Butter Falcon, GiGi’s Playhouse….educate. inspire. believe.

August 9, 2019

Last night we had the chance to partner with KARE 11 on a segment about the new release of The Peanut Butter Falcon that premiers this week. This movie is starring an actor with Down syndrome and is helping the world to see Down syndrome in a very positive light. We are very appreciative to KARE 11 for this incredible opportunity to raise awareness for the Down syndrome community.

In the article and video, check out Shaina, Jerry, Tim, and Sarah! We are so proud. Thank you all for beautifully representing us at GiGi’s, and being leaders in our community.
