Event Information
Chapter Events
Each year the Dayton Area Chapter raises over $ 80,000 dollars from community and annual events. All proceeds go towards Disaster and Emergency preparedness. Our annual events include the “Clara Barton Classic Golf Outing”. A fun filled day of golfing and support of the Red Cross mission and the chapter’s largest fundraiser to date. “The Great Escape” hosted by the Associate Board and “The Glitz” are very popular and ensure a classy atmosphere of food, dancing, and silent auctions. One of our more splashing events is “The Regional Lifeguard Competition,” which brings together a number of facilities to show off their best lifeguarding skills. Last but not least, the American Red Cross is an organization led by volunteers. Therefore, it is our pleasure to honor them with our “Annual Volunteer Recognition Luncheon.”
The American Red Cross has been saving lives through health and safety education, training, disaster relief and preparedness for over a century. Each one of these events plays a major part in accomplishing our mission of helping those in need.
Help the Red Cross change a life starting with your own!

Third Party Sponsored Events
We would like to say thanks to our community and third party fundraisers for helping us serve the Montgomery, Greene, and Preble Counties and provide relief to over 200 families each year. It is because of your generous donations we are able to Save and Change Lives.
A Third Party fundraiser can be an organization or an individual of the community who partners with their local Red Cross chapter to fundraise. There are so many who have helped and played a major role in the DAC operations; and another way for the community to show their support for the Red Cross.
