Chester Community Fellowship
Summer 2024 Chester Fellows with program manager Ashley Henry and Visiting Lang Center Fellow Christopher Mele.
The Chester Community Fellowship (CCF)—a signature Lang Center program funded through the Swarthmore Foundation— enhances the capacity of Chester-based community organizations while providing opportunities for student learning. Students hold internships four days a week; on the fifth day, Fellows work together on a project-in-common relevant to the City of Chester. The summer experience focuses on developing each Chester Fellow as a scholar, civic leader, and public servant.
The 2024 Fellows and their Chester internship host sites are:
- Serafia Cecil ‘27, Ruth L. Bennett Community Farm
- Theo McGreevey '27, Chester Residents Concerned for Quality Living (CRCQL)
- Kana Nagata '26, Chester Children's Chorus
- Babatunde Olofinboba ‘26, Chester Residents Concerned for Quality Living (CRCQL)
- Evelyn Part '25, Ruth L. Bennett Community Farm
- Nicholas Rodriguez '27, Chester Education Foundation
- Jesus Saucedo Bucio '26, The Foundation for Delaware County
