Thank you for continuing to wear a face covering when shopping at the Bruin Community Pantry’s food bank. We would prefer that our volunteers not be required to ask each person to show proof of vaccination. Considering the small space, we want to be able to keep everyone safe, so face coverings will continue to be required to access the food bank.
Thank you for your cooperation. Contact Jere Witherspoon (jwitherspoon@georgefox.edu) if you have questions.
