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…
