Brossman Family Charitable Foundation
The Brossman Foundation was born from a remarkable life. Bertha Brossman Blair spent 72 years with D&E Communications and rose to serve as President and Chair of the Board. Passionate about education, the arts, and social services, she established the Foundation to honor her parents, William and Jemima, and continue giving back to Northern Lancaster County.
