On this last day of Women’s History Month, we’re honoring the incredible Betty Camp — wife of our founder, Dr. Norman Camp, and a powerful force in her own right. 💚

Betty was a steady pillar of PEJ’s early work, a quiet leader whose care, persistence, and belief in community helped shape the foundation we stand on today. Her legacy lives on in every volunteer who shows up, every neighbor we serve, and every bit of progress we make toward a more just and resilient Southeast Raleigh.

Here’s to Betty — a woman whose impact continues to ripple through the Walnut Creek watershed and beyond. 🌿✨
