The GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge is a series of 50+ in-person events taking place across the country! All GiGi’s Playhouse locations host their very own Acceptance Challenge, consisting of a fitness-based challenge and fun-filled activities for the whole family.
Join the Milwaukee May 31st event to show your commitment to including people with Down syndrome and all unique abilities! Join a team, attend the event, donate, sponsor, or volunteer. Our local event consists of a Dash for Down Syndrome where participants kick off our event, inspiring our 5K runners and 1-mile walkers to MOVE for acceptance!
