They arrived as individuals and leave as an EOF family. ❤️🎓

Our Closing Ceremony celebrated six weeks of growth, resilience, and unforgettable memories. Scholars presented their projects, awards were given, we laughed, and a few tears may have been shed. 🥲

And of course, we crowned our summer champions: The Golden Squad, led by RPC Marrissa! 🏆💛

Congratulations to all our scholars on completing the Summer Academy. This chapter may be closing, but your Rutgers–Camden journey is just beginning! 🦅❤️🖤

We closed out our Summer 2026 856 Speaker Series with an impactful conversation featuring Anthony Johnson a Camden native, entrepreneur, speaker, and founder of Our Friendly Advice and Kingdom Connect.

Anthony reminded our EOF scholars to prioritize their mental health, and understand that asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. His journey reminded students that success isn’t just about achieving personal goals, it’s about using your experiences to uplift others and make a meaningful impact.

As we wrap up this summer’s series, we’re grateful to every speaker who invested in our scholars by sharing their stories of perseverance, leadership, and service. Together, they demonstrated that Camden is filled with individuals who are creating positive change and proving that greatness can come from right here at home.

This may be the final session of the summer, but it won’t be the last. The 856 Speaker Series will continue throughout the academic year, bringing more local leaders, more authentic conversations, and more opportunities for our scholars to learn from those who are making a difference in our community and beyond. Stay tuned…

Leading with purpose. Growing through service. Changing the narrative.

This week , our EOF scholars had the privilege of learning from La’Shae Harris, a lifelong Camden resident, social entrepreneur, and founder of Cultivating Camden.

La’Shae shared how a passion for serving others led her to build organizations that create opportunities through workforce development, civic engagement, education, and community empowerment. She challenged our scholars to recognize that leadership and advocacy isn’t about waiting for the perfect moment, it’s about taking action where you are.

Her journey is a powerful reminder that success isn’t measured only by what you achieve for yourself, but by the opportunities you create for others.

Thank you, La’Shae, for inspiring our scholars to embrace their voices, invest in their communities, and see themselves as the next generation of changemakers.

Another inspiring conversation in the books! 🙌

Yesterday, our EOF scholars had the opportunity to hear from Ashly Estevez-Perez as part of our 856 Speaker Series.

Ashly shared how education, mentorship, and community opened doors that transformed her life. Her message reminded our scholars that their background is not a limitation, it’s a strength. Through resilience, purpose, and a commitment to serving others, they can create opportunities not only for themselves but for their communities as well.

Thank you, Ashly, for taking the time and joining us from Washington DC to invest in our students, share your journey, and inspire the next generation of leaders to dream big, stay connected to their roots, and lead with purpose.

The Summer Institute 2026 has officially arrived. ❤️🖤

Today we welcomed 45 incredible scholars to the Rutgers–Camden Educational Opportunity Fund Summer Institute.

Over the next five weeks, they’ll build community, strengthen their academic foundation, develop leadership skills, and begin their college journey together.

This is more than a summer program.
This is where confidence is built, friendships are formed, and futures begin.

Committed. Resilient. Limitless.

The best way to learn is sometimes by listening to those who have already been in your shoes. Outgoing EOF students shared messages and words of advice for the next group of EOF students as they begin their journey.
