The Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF) team and students at Camden County College came together to honor Hispanic Heritage Month with a variety of meaningful and creative activities. From art projects to shared meals, the celebrations provided students with opportunities to explore and share their cultural heritage. Highlights included the creation of a cultural quilt, where each patch symbolized unique stories and symbols from students’ diverse backgrounds, and the curation of a special recipe book preserving beloved family dishes and culinary traditions (copies are available in CTC 209).
One of the month’s standout events was an empowering Latino Roundtable, featuring guest speakers from Lambda Theta Alpha Latin Sorority, Inc. and Lambda Theta Phi Latin Fraternity, Inc. Speakers shared insights on leadership, community service, and the resilience of the Latino community, fostering inspiration and connection.
EOF is proud to have organized these events, each contributing to the richness of our college community, and looks forward to continuing to celebrate and engage with more exciting events in the future.
