Meet Asher Pennington

Third Grader, Asher Pennington, started a fundraiser at Bear Elementary School in Miamisburg so that he could help kids get the medical care they need. Asher’s passion for giving back began after his brother Arrick spent time in the Dayton Children’s NICU back in 2010. Asher said that his brother spent “time in a box” because of the time he was in an incubator. He started collecting pull tabs because he knows that it is a way to “help families when they need it most.”

Meet the Tuco Family

The Tuco family first stayed at the Ronald McDonald House in Dayton in June of 2014 when their son Gavin was just two weeks old. Their first stay lasted three nights, enough time to allow Gavin to gain some needed weight. In January of 2019, they returned to the Dayton House after their daughter Adalynn was born at 36 weeks with trouble breathing. Adalynn spent three weeks in the NICU while her parents and big brother Gavin stayed at the Ronald McDonald House.
