Julian R. Judge, Sr. was a life-long resident of the City of New Britain, who grew up to be a successful entrepreneur. His family has established a designated fund in his name that will benefit the Foundation’s Degree Completion Initiative, designed to help college juniors and seniors who are facing financial pressures that make it difficult or impossible for them to continue in their education and complete their degrees.
This year, for the first time, the Foundation awarded over $300,000 in scholarships to students from Berlin, New Britain, Plainville, Southington, and beyond.
The CFGNB made a $50,000 grant to the Town of Southington from the Louis G. and Ada C. Amodio Fund for Children, Alix W. Stanley Charitable Fund, and A. W. Stanley Discretionary Fund to help build the new playground.
For the entirety of 2021, the Community Foundation of Greater New Britain is celebrating 80 years of Connecting Donors Who Care With Causes That Matter. As a way of recognizing the impact we have had on the communities we have served since 1941, we are putting together a commemorative book to acknowledge the support we continue to receive from individuals and businesses.
