It’s Camp Out For Hunger Day #2 and chaos is afoot. (the good kind)!

Visits from our great partners were sprinkled through a menagerie of guests. Courtyard By Marriott at the Navy Yard, College Ave, Campbell’s Chunky, Independence Blue Cross, Philly Pretzel Factory, Xfinity LIVE!, Wells Fargo Center, and Regency Furniture all made donations to the Camp Out and we are so grateful.

Then there was Gritty. Lots of Gritty. Plus the first female mayor of Philadelphia, Cherelle Parker, and ABC Meteorologist Ginger Zee.

And we crowned a 2024 Champion of Mini Hoops Madness presented by Victory Brewing. Who was it? You’ll have to scroll down and find out.

Thanks to @the_lens_of_spence for capturing images from Day #1 of Camp Out For Hunger. Video recap & livestream powered by Neumann University.
