Young, Frequent House Guest Skates & Raises Funds for RMHC

Olivia Smart, Camden Pulkinen, Ella Wintringer, Jimmy Ma, Bradie Tennell, Adrian Diaz Bronchud, ALysa Liu, & Ross Miner gather before the Skate It Forward performance.

11-year-old Ella Wintringer is a member of the Skating Club of Western New York in Buffalo, New York who frequently stays with us at the Ronald McDonald House in Columbus with her mom, Jamie. This was the second year she participated with ice skating professionals in the annual Skate It Forward show & competition at the Ice Haus at Nationwide Arena. Skate It Forward has raised nearly $100,000 over three years for RMHC! Thank you Ella and to all of the ice skating pros who took part in this year’s show!

Correction: An earlier version of this article showed Ella as raising the total amount of nearly $100,000. Skate It Forward has raised these funds collectively over the past three years, including various other fundraisers throughout the year with hundreds of individuals and teams making contributions. Thank you all and we apologize for the confusion.
