This Year’s Cause: Supporting GiGi’s Playhouse

At SMKC, our mission is rooted in spreading kindness to children, and this year, we are honored to support GiGi’s Playhouse as the beneficiary of our 8th Annual SMKC Kentucky Derby Charity Event.

GiGi’s Playhouse is a life-changing organization dedicated to empowering children with Down syndrome and their families. Through education, therapeutic programming, and supportive resources, GiGi’s Playhouse creates a space where children can thrive, build confidence, and reach their fullest potential.

With the care and kindness at the heart of SMKC, we are proud to align with GiGi’s Playhouse to make a meaningful difference. By supporting this year’s event, you are helping fund vital programs that:

• Provide educational tools and individualized learning opportunities.

• Offer therapeutic resources to enhance motor and speech skills.

• Foster a supportive community where children with Down syndrome and their families feel celebrated and valued.

Your generosity and involvement allow SMKC to shine a spotlight on the incredible work of GiGi’s Playhouse and help children in our community achieve greater possibilities. Together, we are creating a world where every child feels empowered, included, and loved.
