2025 H.O.P.E. Summit Recap!

The 2025 HOPE Summit was a day filled with inspiration, connection, and opportunity, and we couldn’t have done it without the support of our partners and sponsors. A special thank you to The Campbell’s Company, our Headline Sponsor, for hosting the event, participating, volunteering, and to the CEO Mick Beekhuizen for joining us in person to inspire our young adults!

We also received tremendous support from Truist, Holman (Mock Interview Sponsor), SEER Interactive (Headshot Sponsor), Subaru, CDW, VoIP Doctors Business Telecommunications, and NJM Insurance (HOPE Sponsors) all of whom helped make this event possible. Camden LOOP, and the Camden Mayor’s Office (in partnership with Subaru) helped make transportation seamless - young professionals from across the region were able to show up, connect, and take full advantage of this career-defining opportunity.

Attendees had the opportunity to participate in career-focused workshops, covering topics like AI, Cybersecurity, Medical Assisting, Marketing, Self-Care, and Entrepreneurship. A highlight of the day was the “Celebrating Diverse Paths to Success” panel, sponsored by Truist, featuring inspiring speakers from SEER Interactive, Verizon, Holman, Càphê Roasters & 12+ - Wil Reynolds, Khadesha King, Marvin Hernandez, and Raymond John.

Check out the video recap below and we hope to see you next year!
