GiGi’s Playhouse is full of joy and happiness! I can’t thank enough for the precious opportunity to get to know everyone! 💜

After volunteering with his mom at GiGi’s Playhouse Fargo, David was inspired to take action for kids with disabilities. He shared:

✨ “These kids deserve to have the same education and the same opportunities… if no one is going to do anything about it, someone has to step up, right?”

David, a senior at Davies High School, has since launched The Equal Start Foundation, a nonprofit supporting special education teachers and students. 🙌

David is a shining example of Generation G — living with a commitment to be accepting, be generous, and be kind. 💛 We are so proud of the way he’s turning compassion into real change!
