GivingTuesday
GivingTuesday is a global day of giving!
December 2, 2025
Celebrated annually on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, GivingTuesday celebrates giving back. One of the best ways to get involved is by helping others in your own community.
Over the last 10 years, hundreds of caring supporters have joined Dayton Children’s on Giving Tuesday, raising nearly half a million dollars to help sick and injured kids!
Join us all day on December 2 as we celebrate GivingTuesday and work together to do more so all kids thrive! Your gift to Dayton Children’s shows patients and their families how much you care AND has the power to change a child’s life – maybe even save a life!

meet Ashley
giving changes things for kids
A year ago, Ashley was just 9 years old when a car hit and dragged her down a Dayton street. She was rushed to Dayton Children’s with devastating injuries. She would spend 10 days in a coma and a total of 50 days inpatient, undergoing dozens of operations to try to repair her damaged legs and body.
Ashley has a prosthetic leg now and is learning to walk with it, while still regaining use of her other leg. But despite this life-changing event, her spirit is strong and so is her smile. Ashley is grateful for her caregivers at Dayton Children’s, and for everyone who donates to help kids like her.
