Speedway’s Continued Support of Dayton Children’s Hospital: A Year of Impact and Giving

Speedway, part of the 7-Eleven, Inc. family of brands, has long been a pillar of support for local communities, and its unwavering commitment to Dayton Children’s Hospital is a prime example of how businesses can positively impact their neighborhoods. In 2024, Speedway raised over $525,000 for Dayton Children’s, continuing its mission to provide essential care to young patients and their families.

This impressive total was the result of a year-round in-store fundraising campaign at 94 Speedway locations across the Dayton market. Customers at these stores were given the opportunity to donate during their purchases, and their generosity contributed to a year of phenomenal support. Speedway’s customers and employees rallied around the cause, ensuring that every dollar raised stayed local, directly benefiting Dayton Children’s Hospital.

In addition to the in-store fundraising efforts, Speedway also played a significant role in the 33rd Annual Miracle Tournament and Celebration Dinner held in Dayton in June. This event, which is dedicated to supporting Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, raised more than $3 million for the cause. The funds from this event, along with the year-round contributions, are instrumental in helping Dayton Children’s Hospital continue providing world-class pediatric care to children in need.

The spirit of giving didn’t stop there. Speedway’s Enon Corporate Office associates generously volunteered their time during the 7Cares Day in April. This volunteer service was part of a broader effort to give back to the community, and Dayton Children’s Hospital directly benefited from this commitment. In recognition of these efforts, Dayton Children’s received a grant for the services provided during this day.

Additionally, Speedway employees were given the opportunity to contribute directly to Dayton Children’s Hospital through a workplace giving push this summer. The 7-Eleven Cares Foundation matched each employee gift and donated an extra $5,000, further amplifying the collective impact of Speedway’s commitment to the hospital.

Looking ahead to 2025, Speedway will continue its tradition of support by hosting another year-round in-store fundraising campaign across Speedway stores. Customers will once again be invited to donate to Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, and most importantly, every dollar raised will directly benefit Dayton Children’s Hospital, ensuring that local children continue to receive the care they deserve.

This ongoing partnership between Speedway and Dayton Children’s Hospital is a testament to the power of community support, and it shows that when businesses, employees, and customers come together for a good cause, they can make a lasting difference. Together, we can continue to make miracles happen for the children who need it most.

Stay tuned for more updates on how you can help in the upcoming year!
