GiGi's Playhouse Seeking Donations for Fundraiser Gala

Gift cards, tickets to athletic events—if you're willing to donate, GiGi's Playhouse is happy to take it off your hands for their big night.

The Oak Forest location of GiGi's Playhouse, part of a national network of Down syndrome support and education centers, will hold its first annual fundraising gala soon, and they need your help. 

All GiGi's Playhouses host an annual Gala to celebrate the children and families who visit the facility. The organizers are currently seeking donations for the fundraiser—everything from lottery cards, restaurant gift cards, and bottles of alcohol. 

Any raffle prize donations are accepted. Think items from Tastefully Simple, or candles—items that can be put in baskets. Donations of tickets for Chicago athletic teams are also sought. For more information, contact Diane Husar at 708-597-PLAY (7529).

To purchase sponsorships, tables, or individual tickets online for our 1st Annual "I have a Voice" Gala, visit GiGi's website

When: Saturday, April 5
Where: Tinley Park Convention Center
Time: 7 to 11 p.m.
