皇家华人 Fox University: Supporting Students Beyond the Classroom

The Bruin Community Pantry, an initiative of the Office of Student Life, is dedicated to combating food insecurity within our community. We encourage students to utilize the many resources available in Newberg and Yamhill County designed to assist individuals when their resources are low.

Beyond addressing immediate needs like food insecurity, 皇家华人 Fox University offers a wide array of resources to help students succeed academically. We also connect students with support systems that contribute to their personal goals of graduating and securing meaningful employment.

How can I use the Bruin Community Pantry?

Students, employees, and community members are welcome during our hours of operation.

Starting August 25, 20205, no more than ONE regular-sized grocery bag is allowed per visit.

Guests may visit the pantry once a week.

As always, if people need access to food outside our normal hours, please email bruincommunitypantry@georgfox.edu to arrange to access the food bank.

Please read this story about how one student learned to use the food bank and expanded her culinary acumen regarding food preparation.

How Can I Help?

The success and sustainability of the pantry is dependent on our volunteers. We need people to unload the food truck each week, organize and restock the shelves as needed, and clean. If you are interested in volunteering, visit our Donations and Volunteers page to learn more.
