Saint Vincent Academy, Newark’s only private, Catholic college-preparatory school for girls, has served the Greater Newark community since 1869 under the sponsorship of its founders, The Sisters of Charity of Saint Elizabeth of New Jersey. The Academy commits all resources to the growth and development of students struggling against racial, gender and economic obstacles. The Run/Walk in Newark's Branch Brook Park is a fundraiser for tuition aid for deserving students who value their education at Newark's landmark school, SVA. Your participation in this event is deeply appreciated.
