                                  CERTIFICATION


I, Donald S. Hom, certify that:

        1.      I have reviewed this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB of Lincoln
                Park Bancorp;

        2.      Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue
                statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
                necessary to make the statements made, in light of the
                circumstances under which such statements were made, not
                misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

        3.      Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other
                financial information included in this report, fairly present in
                all material respects the financial condition, results of
                operations and cash flows of the small business issuer as of,
                and for, the period presented in this report.

        4.      The small business issuer's other certifying officer(s) and I
                are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure
                controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules
                13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the registrant and have:

                a.      Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or
                        caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be
                        designed under our supervision, to ensure that material
                        information relating to the registrant, including its
                        consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others
                        within those entities, particularly during the period in
                        which this report is being prepared;

                b.      Evaluated the effectiveness of the small business
                        issuer's disclosure controls and procedures and
                        presented in this report our conclusion about the
                        effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures,
                        as of the end of the period covered by this report based
                        on such evaluation; and

                c.      Disclosed in this report any change in the small
                        business issuer's internal control over financial
                        reporting that occurred during the small business
                        issuer's most recent fiscal quarter (the small business
                        issuer's fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual
                        report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably
                        likely to materially affect, the small business issuer's
                        internal control over financial reporting; and

        5.      The small business issuer's other certifying officer(s) and I
                have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal
                control over financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors
                and the audit committee of small business issuer's board of
                directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

                a.      All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in
                        the design or operation of internal control over
                        financial reporting which are reasonably likely to
                        adversely affect the small business issuer's ability to
                        record, process, summarize and report financial
                        information; and

                b.      Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves
                        management or other employees who have a significant
                        role in the small business issuer's internal controls
                        over financial reporting.
