KVRR Local News May 13, 2021 Below a charred roof at the strip mall, three words hang tough: educate, inspire and believe. Those three words embody the mission behind GiGi’s Playhouse: North Dakota’s first and only Down syndrome achievement center. “We will get through this together and we will all rise together to really help GiGi’s back to help educate, inspire and believe,” said GiGi’s Playhouse Executive Director Heather Lorenzen. “When we look at the facility here and being here for over five and a half years, it is devastating because we lost everything.” GiGi’s unit was completely destroyed by the fire and the non-profit has been forced to temporarily pause its programs.
