As a dedicated member of the Miami Valley Hospital Board of Trustees and later the Miami Valley Hospital Foundation Board, the late Al Dunn believed deeply in service and community. In the late 1970s, after learning trauma patients had a far greater chance of survival if treated within the “Golden Hour,” Al asked a simple but powerful question: What if Dayton had a medical helicopter like the military?

With the leadership and support of the Miami Valley Hospital Board, that vision became CareFlight. Since launching in 1983, CareFlight has transported more than 90,000 patients and continues to deliver lifesaving care when every minute matters.

Today, the legacy of Al and Marilyn Dunn lives on in every flight, every patient, and every life saved. Help us reach new heights today!

For nearly 30 years, Rusty Proffitt struggled to manage his diabetes—until he found the Bull Family Diabetes Center in Dayton. Today, his A1C is 6.2, down from nearly 12.

Rusty’s journey is one of many made possible by The Valley Classic—a golf tournament hosted by Miami Valley Hospital Foundation that benefits diabetes education.

“To everyone who’s ever donated to The Valley Classic, thank you,” says Rusty. “You didn’t just help me—you gave me hope. That’s something money can’t buy.”

Join us July 28 at NCR Country Club to support this life-changing work!
