Inside Camden
Can businesses still be a force for good after Covid-19?
Camden Giving is based on a notion that everyone has something to give, be that time, skills, money, local insight or money. Every person, business, community group and local employee can get involved in ending the statistic that Camden has the 3rd widest wealth inequality gap in the country.
