We’re thrilled to announce that Fernside has received a $35,000 grant from Fund to support our School-Based Grief Support Program for K–12 students across Greater Cincinnati.
This is the Millstone Fund’s first-ever grant to Fernside, and we couldn’t be more grateful for their commitment to helping grieving children.
Did you know there are over 16,000 children in Greater Cincinnati who have experienced the death of a parent? Grief can deeply impact a child’s emotional well-being, academic success, and social connections. Our School-Based program is proven to teach coping skills and reduce isolation, both of which are critical for bereaved children and teens. By providing grief support in schools, we can bring hope and healing directly to students where they need it most.With this generous support, Fernside can continue providing compassionate care and resources to help children navigate their grief and build resilience for the future.
💙 Thank you, Millstone Fund, for joining us in creating a grief-inclusive community!
