The Dayton Foundation is the regional community foundation for Greater Dayton, according to the release; since its establishment in 1921, the foundation has managed more than 3,700 charitable funds that have provided more than $920 million in grants to nonprofits locally and nationwide.

The Dayton Foundation is working with local officials to distribute the money collected from the Dayton Oregon District Tragedy Fund to families directly affected by the shooting, the release noted.

Since opening in 2015, Flying Ace Express has donated thousands of dollars and carwashes to support Greater Dayton organizations, including Dayton Children’s Hospital, Dayton Foodbank, Feed The Creek, For Love of Children, Moms 4 Miracles, SICSA, The Alzheimer’s Association, The Community Table and Volunteers of America, the release stated.

The company currently operates express washes in Beavercreek, Englewood, Huber Heights, Miamisburg and Washington Township, and a seventh location, currently under construction in Moraine, will open in late fall 2019, the release concluded.
