Life expectancy for individuals with Down syndrome has gone from 25 in 1983 to around 60 today — close to an extra lifetime, inside a single generation.​

​Which means most individuals with Down syndrome are grown-ups, and adulthood is the longest part of the story.​

​They want what other adults want. Their own money. Their own friends. Their own space. Their own say in it.​

​That is why our commitment does not stop at graduation. GiGi Prep, GiGi University, GiGi Professional and GiGi’s Achievers are FREE career training programs built for adults — communication, time management, money handling, workplace skills, job certifications.​

​A lifetime commitment means a lifetime.

A HUGE thank you to our amazing volunteers from AbbyBank!

We are so grateful to the AbbyBank team for spending their Volunteer Day at GiGi’s Playhouse Wausau! From helping with some much-needed deep cleaning in our kitchen to tackling administrative projects, they generously gave their time and talents to support our mission.

As if their time and hard work weren’t enough, the AbbyBank Foundation also generously gifted our Playhouse a $750 grant! We are incredibly thankful for this additional support and the impact it will have on our programs and the families we serve.

GiGi’s Playhouse Wausau is powered by the generosity of our community, and volunteers like these make such a difference. Every hour given, every task completed, and every act of kindness helps us continue providing free, purposeful programs for individuals with Down syndrome and their families.

Thank you, AbbyBank, for showing up for our Playhouse and helping us create a more accepting world for all! We appreciate you! 💙💛

A huge thank you to Carrissa with Photopoulos Family Photography for generously donating her time and incredible talents to capture these special moments from our Harvest Picnic!

Carrissa has such a gift for capturing the heart, joy, and spirit of GiGi’s Playhouse Wausau. She donates hours of her time to our organization, and her generosity means more than words can express. She is truly deserving of the Business of the Year award, and we are so lucky to have someone as generous and talented as her supporting our mission!

Thank you, Carrissa, for helping us preserve these beautiful memories and share the joy of our Playhouse with our community!
