About Fargo Walk And Fest 2020

GiGi’s Playhouse Fargo is a Down Syndrome Achievement Center serving individuals with Down syndrome (pre-natal diagnosis through adulthood) and their families in the Fargo-Moorhead and surrounding communities. GiGi’s Playhouse Fargo is one of 49 national centers in the United States and Mexico supporting the following mission and vision:

Our Mission: To change the way the world views Down syndrome and send a global message of acceptance of all.

Our Vision: To see a world where individuals with Down syndrome are accepted and embraced in their families, schools, and communities.

Since opening our doors in September 2015, GiGi’s Playhouse Fargo has impacted over 140 families. All programming, activities, resources, and support offered through GiGi’s are provided at no cost to individuals or families. GiGi’s firmly adheres to the philosophy that cost will never be a barrier to success of individuals with Down syndrome.

Due to COVID-19 pandemic in person programs at the Playhouse were suspended, but that did not stop GiGi’s Playhouse Fargo in serving our families! Ten days after physically closing our doors GiGi’s at Home launched to provide the same purposeful programs safely in families homes! In 2020, we all have experienced pushing through barriers, and we need you now more than ever to help us continue to provide our families resources and the support they need!

GiGi’s Playhouse Fargo 2020 Walk and Festival will be inspiring one neighborhood at a time through a virtual walk and festival on September 20, 2020


GiGi’s Walk & Fest 2020 is truly a celebration of our courageous individuals making every step count and ask that you consider supporting this family-fun event as participant, donor, or sponsor as we celebrate 5 years of purposeful programs in Fargo.

Why Participate?

GiGi’s Playhouse Down Syndrome Achievement Center’s mission is to change the way the world views Down syndrome through national campaigns, educational programs, and by empowering individuals with Down syndrome, their families and the community. We offer free therapeutic and educational programming to individuals with Down syndrome and their families.



How your support makes a difference

 Through free programs and through our Generation G Campaign for global acceptance, we EMPOWER families by maximizing opportunities for daily achievement and lasting acceptance. To ensure lasting acceptance, we must show the world what individuals with Down syndrome are truly capable of achieving as students, co-workers, volunteers, friends, and valued members of their communities. Our program outcomes help advance this vital social impact goal.
