11th Annual Hall of Fame

Camden NJ-

The Camden Schools Foundation hosted its 11th Annual Hall of Fame Dinner and Fundraiser on March 22, 2022 at Tavistock Country Club. This year’s event served as a celebration honoring four new inductees into the Hall of Fame, as well as presenting the second annual Founder’s Honor. The Camden Schools Foundation’s Hall of Fame continues to grow each and every year as we celebrate the distinguished men and women that are residents of Camden city or graduates of Camden schools that have gone above and beyond for their communities as well as the students in Camden.
