Description:
Black-and-white photographic prints depicting activities led by the Corporate Alliance for Drug Education (CADEkids). Prints feature a CADEkids program implementation at William McKinley School in the Norris Square area of Philadelphia. According to their website, the mission of CADEkids "is to promote children’s potential for growth through comprehensive school and community-based youth development and support programs. We begin these programs at an early age, with the goal of encouraging positive choices while reducing high-risk behaviors. According to their website, GSK is "a fully focused biopharma company. We prioritize innovation in vaccines and specialty medicines, maximizing the increasing opportunities to prevent and treat disease. At the heart of this is our R&D focus on the science of the immune system and advanced technologies, and our world-leading capabilities in vaccines and medicines development. We focus on four therapeutic areas: infectious diseases, HIV, respiratory/immunology, and oncology." Harvey Finkle (born March 28, 1934) is a self-taught documentary still photographer and photojournalist who has documented social, economic, cultural, and political issues across the city of Philadelphia, the United States, and the world. Finkle's work largely focuses on activism relating to historically underrepresented communities, including people living on low income, unhoused/unsheltered/houseless people/people experiencing homelessness, refugees, immigrants, and disabled people.
