Henry House Video 2011 Founded by PGA golfer J.J. Henry, Henry House Foundation is a non-profit organization with a mission to generate public awareness and to support community-based programs that focus on the healthcare and well-being of children in the community. The foundation makes donations to fund specific, tangible projects initiated by children’s medical and support services and organizations in Fort Worth and Southern New England. "I’ve been fortunate to have experienced great success in my career,” said J.J. Henry. “Now, through Henry House, my family and I are able to give back to the communities we call home." "I’m excited to be representing the U.S. as a Ryder Cup team player,” Henry said. “Plus, I’m honored that the Henry House Foundation and TCU will each receive $100,000 from the PGA in recognition of my participation."
Launching the Ben Hogan Learning Center What a way to end 2011! Along with the Ben Hogan Foundation, we were thrilled to open the Ben Hogan Learning Center for The First Tee of Fort Worth. It has been a phenomenal 3+ year partnership with this fantastic First Tee Chapter, and we are proud to watch them grow. This Center, unlike any in the country, will be home to thousands of First Tee participants for years to come. We encourage all Henry House friends to visit the center at Rockwood Golf Course, complete with two classrooms, an indoor club repair room and swinging bay, Fort Worth golf museum, board room and library, office spaces and of course our favorite - The Henry House Hangout! 
The First Tee of Fort Worth board president Janet George Herald, JJ & Lee Henry, and board member Raymond Darrow. The Hangout Room, a personal dream and concept seen through by JJ himself, will be where The First Tee kids can go to just be kids, and take ownership over this beautiful new building and of course the program. Complete with three televisions, Xbox Kinnect stations, a homework and game bench and nook, Golden Tee arcade games and fun seating, the Henry House Hangout is a proud moment for the Foundation to give back, tangibly, the these wonderful youth of Fort Worth. The weekend ceremonies included visits and speeches by JJ Henry, LPGA Tour player Angela Stanford, numerous First Tee Fort Worth participants, and The First Tee's national president Joe Louis Barrow. It was a memorable weekend and a ribbon cutting ceremony that will forever be a banner moment for The Henry House Foundation. Thanks to our wonderful supporters for allowing us to continue this important and very special work in the community.

The evening includes cocktails by Grey Goose, full dinner, premium live and silent auction, a program by JJ and Brian Estridge followed by Paint Jam by Dan Dunn and our headlining performer Jack Ingram! It's truly a fantastic cause and as you know from 2010, the "all white hot" attire makes it quite memorable.

Tournament play will be a four ball, stroke play with two man teams in an open or net division, concluded with six PGA Tour teams in a Pro bracket for all Invitational players and guests to follow and watch. Play will take place at Mr. Hogan’s home course, Shady Oaks Country Club, and includes breakfast, tee gift packages, lunch and drinks on the course as well as a concluding awards ceremony with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres.

JJ and Henry House 'Tee it Up' for second year in Connecticut to benefit Henry's hometown kids 
The Henry House Foundation and The First Tee of Metropolitan New York "teed it up" for the 2nd Annual J.J. Henry Invitational at the beautiful Patterson Club in Fairfield, CT on Monday, June 27. Through the J.J. Henry Invitational, the Henry House will support the future construction of a new learning center at The First Tee Facility at Fairchild Wheeler Golf Course in Bridgeport, CT. The event was especially significant as The Patterson Club is where JJ grew up and learned the game of golf, just miles from his childhood home.

Henry House Foundation Gives Away Biggest Check to Date! Together with the Jewel Charity, JJ Henry was able to hand over a $300,000 check to Cook Children's Hospital on Tuesday May 17. When Jewel Charity offered to bring The Henry House on board for 2011 through their Charity Classic golf tournament, both groups soon realized we had a homerun partnership to maximize funds for the kids.” JJ Henry proudly committed the $300,000 to execute a Henry House Teen Room designed by long-term patients. The lounge area in the new wing will be exactly what the patients want, and most importantly what they need. The Henry House is pleased to bring a smile to these kids’ faces, to give them a sense of peace and normality during their stay. And we are excited that this check is just the beginning. The Foundation will continue to support this wonderful Children's Hospital as we pledge to raise more funds and awareness for this project and the entire new Kids’ Zone for Cook Children’s.
