Thank you to David Matthau at WHYY for getting to know SJCS. And thank you to Rinse & Elaysel German for participating in this conversation, they are a wonderful example of the amazing and hardworking families we get to assist everyday.

We are so proud of this mural depicting the rich history of East Camden. Thank you to everyone who was able to join us to celebrate the ribbon cutting for our newest mural on Admiral Wilson Blvd. Congratulations to the artists from the We Live Here Artist Collective on their amazing work.

We are thrilled to share an article about our Executive Director, Pilar Hogan Closkey, who has been with the organization for 25 remarkable years. Continuing the visionary work of our founder, Father Bob McDermott, Pilar has led our efforts to revitalize East Camden into a vibrant strong community. Her unwavering commitment and passion have made a significant impact on our organization and East Camden and we are proud to have her at the helm. Here's to many more years of making a difference together! Thank you to TAPinto Camden and Neill Borowski.
