Driving Change for Gigi’s Playhouse

Sep 8, 2023 | Alpine News Blog

As dedicated supply chain professionals, we spend most of our year navigating deadlines, troubleshooting challenges, and enhancing our processes. It’s demanding yet fulfilling work. While ensuring our clients receive timely assistance remains our top priority, we also take pride in our active role within our community. That’s why we are thrilled to mark our 6th consecutive year of participation in Gigi’s Playhouse’s annual golf fundraiser!

 

About Gigi’s Playhouse

Gigi’s Playhouse is on a mission to empower individuals with Down Syndrome and their families right from the initial diagnosis. They make a lifetime commitment to support them through therapeutic-based programs, educational opportunities, career development, and more. It’s worth noting that Gigi’s Playhouse operates solely on donations, and all their programs are provided free of charge.

 

Why Gigi’s Playhouse?

Down Syndrome is the most common chromosomal disability in the US, yet it remains one of the most underfunded. This is a cause that deeply resonates with us, and we have committed ourselves not only to assist but also to raise awareness. Each year, we actively seek ways to volunteer and support Gigi’s Playhouse, and one of our most cherished traditions is participating in their annual golf fundraiser.

 

Annual Golf Fundraiser

Gigi’s 10th annual golf outing was held on August 28, 2023 at The Club of Wynstone in North Barrington, IL. All 144 slots were filled and the event raised over $160,000 in support of Gigi’s Playhouse Down Syndrome Achievement Centers. Alpine is grateful to our customers and partners who joined us in making it a memorable day:

  • CJ Logistics
  • Conveyor Solutions
  • Crate & Barrel
  • Dexter
  • Essendant
  • Mattel
  • Walgreens

As always, the event was not only enjoyable but also incredibly fulfilling. Spending a day on the green with wonderful people is a gift in itself. Yet, the knowledge that we are raising funds to assist those in need adds a priceless dimension to it all. If you’d like to learn more or make a donation to this worthy cause, please visit Gigi’s Playhouse.
