“We are very grateful to have Lexus of Las Vegas as a gold medal sponsor for our 13th annual Runnin’ for the House,” said Ashley Fawcett, marketing coordinator of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater Las Vegas. “This is our second largest fundraiser of the year, so to have Lexus of Las Vegas’ support means the world to us.

“Through Lexus’ support, they are truly helping to keep families close. All money raised stays locally at the Las Vegas Ronald McDonald House. Our events would not be as successful without Lexus’ generosity.”
