The mission of The Compassionate Friends is to assist families in the positive resolution of grief following the death of a child or sibling of ANY age and to provide information to help others be supportive.
Welcome to The
Miami Valley, Ohio Chapter
We are glad you are here, but sorry for the reason.
Our meetings are open to all family members who are grieving the death of a child. There is no religious affiliation and no dues or fees. There are a free chapter lending library and a free monthly newsletter. We offer a safe place for bereaved parents, grandparents and siblings to meet and talk freely about your child and your grief issues. No one is required to speak, but non-judgmental listening is expected.

Vote For TCF in "The Chase Community Giving program."
Your vote can help The National TCF Organization win up
to $1 million!! You can help our organization in a big way with little
effort! Plan to cast a vote for TCF January 15-22 in the second round of the
Chase Community Giving program, and help us to win a $1 million award. That’s
right, $1 million. The very unique $5 million Chase
Community Giving program has already awarded 100 nonprofits, including The
Compassionate Friends, $25,000 each for receiving the most votes in round one
November 15-December 12 from among 500,000 eligible smaller nonprofits.
Tens of thousands of nonprofits were nominated by their membership. The votes
from our members, family, friends, and Facebook Fans combined to give us enough
votes to finish in the top 100 of all charities participating. In the
January second round of voting, the nonprofit receiving the most votes will
receive a $1 million grant while five runners-up will receive $100,000 each. The
Compassionate Friends is aiming squarely for the $1 million top grant!
Voting in the Chase Community Giving $5 million program is
done entirely on Facebook. Even if you’re not already on Facebook, you can
easily join, cast your vote, and then, as you wish, either use or deactivate
your account. For more information on this tremendous opportunity to help our
organization and bereaved families just like yours, please visit our national
website at

Thank you to all our chapter members who
voted in the first round for our organization!
