We are looking for individuals who are willing to share their experience with battling depression, anxiety, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, or have lost a loved one to suicide. We, as George Fox film students, are producing a music video for an upcoming project to help communicate a cause that we care deeply about.
The goal of the film is to show others that we are not alone in our struggles, so we are looking for as many stories as possible that we can share. Filming will take place the weekends of Feb. 16-18 and Feb. 23-25, with exact times TBD.

Do you know a student who may benefit – or have family members that may benefit – from access to fresh produce as well as staple foods (rice, pasta, tortillas, canned vegetables, etc.)?
If so, keep Newberg FISH in mind as a resource. FISH provides food assistance in a respectful way to all those who come in and voice a need. They have a rule that they never turn anyone away.
To be eligible for a full food basket (with USDA food) there are some basic income restrictions, and a student must live in Newberg or Dundee. However, even students who do not meet these standards are eligible to receive the non-USDA food selection available at FISH.
A student simply needs to take a piece of his or her mail to the office. No Social Security numbers or intrusive personal details are collected. All FISH materials are available in English and Spanish.
To learn more about FISH, visit their website at newbergfish.org or write info@newbergfish.org. The office is located at 125-A S. Elliott Road in Newberg.
