“Nite at Races” Benefits Struggling Daytonians

November 18, 2015 By The Food Adventures Crew Leave a Comment

The Rent Foundation charity helps Daytonians who are in crisis. This small committee of about a dozen property managers, and vendor reps are the charitable arm of the Greater Dayton Apartment Association.  In this association many members, property management companies and vendors, reach out and support this worthy cause.  A cause that keeps many area apartment dwellers from being homeless.

The GDAA Rent Foundation assists Miami Valley residents who rent their home and through illness or tragedy cannot make their next payment.

This Friday, one of their biggest events of the year, called “NITE AT THE RACES,” is open to the public.  Horse races will be shown on the big screen at IUE/CWA Hall, 1675 Woodman Drive.
