Camden, N.J., May 5, 2025 – NFI proudly donates $25,000 to Camden Prep, a school network near its Camden, New Jersey headquarters. With this donation, the schools will be able to fund four athletic teams and two after-school clubs.
The biggest beneficiaries of this donation are Mt. Ephraim Middle School and Copewood Middle School, two award-winning schools in the Camden Prep circuit. Home to students from all across the Camden area, their mission is to provide a community where students will feel loved and nurtured through their shared academic experiences.
“At NFI, we recognize the importance education has on developing minds, and that includes students throughout our communities,” said Sid Brown, CEO at NFI. “Sports and activities contribute to a person’s character, and I’m glad we’re able to provide ways for students to get involved.”
“We are grateful to NFI for providing Camden Prep students with the opportunity to explore their passions and talents because we know it is one of the most effective ways to keep students engaged in school and persist with high attendance, a frequent issue across Camden and New Jersey more broadly,” says Natalie Cooper, Camden’s Board Chair, “Studies show organized and mentored after-school activities like those supported by NFI help to improve students’ social-emotional learning and also help our students reach their full potential.”
In addition to this donation, NFI partners with Camden Prep by welcoming students into annual internships where they can gain hands-on work experience across the organization. This year’s class has seven interns working in marketing, safety, transportation, and more departments. Visit https://camdenprep.uncommonschools.org/ to learn more about Camden Prep and its mission.
