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!

We’re incredibly grateful to the McGraw family for their continued support of the Upper Valley Medical Center Foundation.

To honor their late parents, Bill and Ruth McGraw, the family has helped create the McGraw Family Walking Path—a peaceful place on the UVMC campus where patients, families, and staff can reflect and recharge.

This meaningful gift is just one part of the McGraws’ lasting legacy. For nearly 20 years, they also brought nationally known speakers to our community through the McGraw Cancer Awareness Symposium.

Thank you to Bill, Karen, and Chris for turning your family’s journey into something that will continue to help others for years to come.
