The Corning Community College Development Foundation, Inc. is pleased to publicly announce the establishment of Jommy’s Child Care Scholarship Fund, named by Conrad R. Stemski to honor his wife, Lucy A. Stemski. This fund will be used to assist part-time and full-time students attending Corning Community College (CCC) who wish to pursue their education but are financially challenged to provide child care for their children. Awards are determined based on the financial need of each student and assist in fees at the CCC Child Care Center.
In recognition of their gift, their service, and the many other contributions the Stemskis have made to CCC, Jommy’s Children’s Library was unveiled this past fall at CCC’s Child Care Center on Denison Parkway in Corning, NY. The Library creates a welcoming space for children to enjoy reading time with CCC’s committed staff of care providers.
“Mr. & Mrs. Stemski have been our most loving and generous benefactors. Without their leadership, their foresight, and their generous financial support … many students with children would not be able to pursue their college education, achieve their life goals, and become productive members of our community. This milestone gift sets a new record for us – the benefits of the Stemski’s giving will provide support to CCC students for many years to come and will reap benefits within our community for decades to come.” - Mary Ellen DeNardo, CCC Child Care Director
As a trustee of Corning Community College from1971-1985, Mr. Conrad Stemski was instrumental to the establishment of the Corning Community College Development Foundation, Inc., and the Business Development Center that was purchased in the mid-1980s. The Business Development Center, located at 1 6-36 Denison Parkway West, Corning, NY, continues to house the Child Care Center as well as CCC’s Office of Workforce Development and the Small Business Development Center. Upon transformation to a regional community college, Mr. Conrad Stemski served an additional appointment on Corning Community College’s Regional Board of Trustees from 1985-1987.
As a professional, Mr. Stemski had an esteemed career including senior vice president of Corning Glass Works (currently known as Corning Incorporated), past president of Corning Enterprises, and chief of staff for Congressman Amory Houghton, Jr.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Stemski are Corning, NY, natives who were born, raised, and educated in the Southern Tier. They are proud parents to three daughters, Nancy, Suzanne, and Carol, who each attended Corning Community College.
