The Cincinnati Foundation For The Aged assists the financial needs of persons interested in moving into
non-profit retirement communities. We subsidize some of their costs. Currently we are helping about 55 people. For

Our Foundation started as "The Duetches Altenheim" in 1891. Funded by several Cincinnati business and
professional leaders, they provided a home for immigrant workers, who had no family in Cincinnati to take care of them when
they retired. Some of the original benefactors were; Christian Boss, Frederick Alms, JG Schmidlapp, Christian Morelein, John
Hauck, Gustav Tafel, Albert Erkenbrecker, Charles C. Hoefinghoff, Justus Goebel, Henry Maulhauser, Henry Wielert, Henry Lahmann,
Frank Tuchfarber, Charles Albrecht, Paul Echert, Henry Snider, George Yost, JR Laube, FP Haldy, and Frank Duhme.
