GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge 2025

Registration is now open for the GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge - GFAC 2025. 

The GiGiFIT Acceptance Challenge or GFAC is a physical and social movement for ACCEPTANCE.
Over twenty-five thousand participants globally will walk, run and dash in an epic movement for acceptance!
We're uniting across race, gender, abilities, beliefs and more, because every person deserves to be accepted as they are. Our incredible friends living with Down syndrome are leading the way as the masters of acceptance!
Join us and the greater Portland community at Mary S Young State Park to celebrate acceptance and the Pacific Northwest's first Down syndrome achievement center: GiGi's Playhouse Portland!

There is something for everyone! You can choose to participate in the 5k Run, or a 1-mile Inspiration Walk. The finale is a celebratory 21-Yard Dash for Down syndrome where all participants will receive a completion medal!

T-SHIRT INFORMATION: All participants wishing to receive a shirt must register by 6/01/25. 

AFTER JUNE 1st, T-SHIRTS ARE NOT GUARANTEED.

Invite your family, friends, teachers, doctors, postal workers, grocers; all are welcome!
