Sister M. Immaculata Kraemer Memorial Award
The Sister M. Immaculata Kraemer Memorial Award is presented to an individual

unending time and energy in support of the university community and its mission.
The award is presented in memory of Sister M. Immaculata Kraemer, CSFN, for her
service and dedication to the Alumni Association as its moderator from 1960 to
1972. This award is not presented every year. It is given only when the Alumni
Association of Holy Family feels the service and dedication of an individual
or group warrants special recognition for their efforts.
This endowed scholarship was established in 1978 by the Holy Family University Alumni Association for the children of Holy Family graduates. The scholarship is awarded to current students whose scholastic record is satisfactory and who give evidence of financial need. It is a one-time award that is not renewable.
