Allen M. and Rosalind W. Humes
Humanitarian Scholarship Fund
(1999)
The Allen M. and Rosalind W. Humes Humanitarian
Scholarship Fund was established by their son and
daughter-in-law, Brian and Cori Humes, to honor
their parents in a way that perpetuates the values
they share. The scholarship, for graduating seniors
at Berlin High School and high schools serving Deep
River, Conn., and Winchester, N.H., encourages the
pursuit of a humanitarian discipline and involvement
in a faith community.
Paul J. and Mary P. Karam Music
Scholarship Fund (1999)
The Paul J. and Mary P. Karam Music Scholarship
Fund was established by their daughter and son in
law, Cori and Brian Humes, in their honor. Cori and
Brian wanted a meaningful way to give back to the
community and to honor the Karams’ values and
beliefs. This fund will help students graduating from
Berlin High School who are pursuing a career in
music or music education.
Keith Benson Kramer Scholarship
Fund (2001)
The Keith Benson Kramer Scholarship Fund was
established by Mona P. Kramer Clough to
memorialize her son’s interests and ideals. This
scholarship is for graduating seniors of Berlin High
School pursuing a four-year degree program at
an accredited college or university.
Macdonald/Hjerpe Scholarship Fund
(2000)
The Macdonald/Hjerpe Scholarship Fund was
established by David and Nancy (Hjerpe)
Macdonald for the high school student who has the
ability to succeed in college, if given some financial
help. Although an education is often difficult to
manage financially, the Macdonalds understand
that sometimes “unsung” students thrive when
someone recognizes their potential with such a
scholarship. In appreciation of the college educations
they were given by their parents, David and
Nancy established this scholarship to help others
with a strong work ethic to realize the same dream
of a college education. This four-year scholarship is
for students from New Britain, Plainville and
Farmington High Schools.

The William P. McCormack Scholarship Fund was

and friends, as a permanent memorial to Mr.
McCormack. Born and raised in New Britain, Bill
McCormack was a New Britain High School
graduate who went on to attend Central
Connecticut State University. He worked for The
Herald newspaper for 42 years, concluding his
career as the newspaper’s circulation director.

H
erbert Carlson, Sr., and
Elizabeth M. “Libby” Carlson were
dedicated community leaders
committed to Greater New
Britain. A city native, Herb was
an executive for many years
with the former New Britain Bank
& Trust Company, retiring in 1973
as chairman of the bank’s executive
committee after having already served as chairman of the board.
He was a trustee of the Community Foundation’s predecessor, the New
Britain Foundation for Public Giving, as well as the A.W. Stanley
Foundation, Robert C. Vance Foundation and Klingberg Family Centers.
Herb also served as a director and Chairman of the Board of New Britain
General Hospital, where Libby – a 1934 Simmons College graduate and
former Navy officer in World War II – retired as assistant to the president
in 1977. Libby, too, was a trustee of the Vance Foundation and
Klingberg Family Centers, and was very active with the YWCA, United
Way and Kensington Congregational Church.
This fund was originally created by Libby, who passed away in 2007,
in Herb’s memory, and will continue to support the Community
Foundation of Greater New Britain and The Hospital of Central
Connecticut, New Britain campus.
