The Hungerford Family Foundation, Inc. (THFFI) is a tax exempt 501(c)(3) public charity under the United States Tax Code. THFFI is trying to connect all living Hungerfords (especially those who are descended from Hungerfords but do not have the Hungerford surname) to their Hungerford ancestors.
Members enjoy full access to our extensive database of tens of thousands of Hungerford and associated family surnames (growing as births and obituaries are recorded), photographs, manuscripts and other information related to our Hungerford heritage. Members also have access to a database listing the medical conditions contributing to the deaths of our ancestors. Our expectation is that the development of a large pool of medical data will disclose patterns suggesting medical risks that could inform our understanding of our own health issues at sufficiently early stages that treatment intervention can improve the quality of our lives, not to mention the longevity of our presence on this earth. And membership confers the right to apply for scholarships funded by the Foundation.
