Our Mission
To aid in providing financial relief to families or caregivers of children to assist with final expenses due to an unexpected loss.
About The Henzi Foundation
The Henzi Foundation is a Cincinnati-based charity serving families throughout the greater Cincinnati area and southern Indiana. Founded by a family who experienced the devastating loss of a child firsthand, we understand the financial burden that compounds the already unbearable grief of losing a child.
Based in Cincinnati, Ohio, we work directly with funeral homes and service providers in our community to ensure families receive the support they need during their most difficult moments.

Our Vision
We aim to provide relief regardless of the child's race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or cause of death. We pay service providers directly (funeral homes, obituary services), ensuring families do not have to handle the funds during their grief.
Our Process
When a family reaches out to us, we work directly with funeral homes and service providers to cover expenses. This approach ensures:
- Transparency: Donors know their contributions are going directly to expenses they committed to pay
- Dignity: Families don't have to manage financial transactions during their darkest moments
- Efficiency: Funds go directly to those who need them most
100% Impact Promise
All operational expenses are covered by the Henzi family. This means 100% of public donations go directly to funeral expenses. Every dollar you give helps a family say goodbye with dignity.
