Join the 2024 Spring Faith into Action challenge

Tuesday, January 16th, 2024

To add some collaborative fun and encourage our campus to set aside the extra time and energy it takes to get involved in service, the Office for Spiritual Life invites you to join the 2024 Spring Faith into Action challenge!

To participate, simply serve with passion alongside your residential living area or commuter group:

  • Brandt and Edwards halls
  • Houses and apartments
  • Le Shana and Gulley halls
  • Pennington Hall
  • Newlin Hall
  • Commuters

Between Martin Luther King Jr. Day and the end of spring break on March 31, the residential living area or commuter group of participants that collectively logs and validates the highest average of community service hours on the Helper-Helper app will earn a $500 prize party for your living area, plus five (Bauman) chapel credits for all participants.

If there are other community service opportunities that you would like to see added to the Helper-Helper app, or if you would like to reach out to your 2023 Serve Day site to serve there again, please don’t hesitate to reach out via email to serveday@georgefox.edu or you can DM us on Instagram @GFUSpiL.

We truly are blessed to be a blessing. We hope you have fun, enjoy a semester of serving with passion, and share the Be Known promise beyond our campus borders!

Consider supporting DPT service trip to Uganda

Monday, January 15th, 2024

This year, the George Fox University Doctor of Physical Therapy program will have the opportunity to travel to Uganda and serve their communities in need. While we’re there, we will partner with local leaders and advocacy groups to provide training and collaborate in the treatment and management of people with disabilities.

Our time will be spent at two boarding schools for children with disabilities, as well as with local physicians and nurses helping run free primary care clinics. The GFU DPT program cannot wait to see how God works through this trip for our students and those whom they will be serving.

With your support, GFU DPT will be able to not only serve the people in the rural areas of Uganda, but also utilize the physical therapy and differential diagnosis skills that they have learned in the program. Would you prayerfully consider supporting the GFU DPT with a gift today?

Give online: https://fundraise.givesmart.com/vf/24UGANDA

Thank you for partnering with us!

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Garrett Cassio (gcassio22@georgefox.edu)!

Posters and displays are generally intended to advertise a particular event or raise awareness about the activities of an officially recognized campus club or organization.

With this in mind, please pay special attention to the following policies:

  • Campus displays must be submitted for approval at least two weeks before the display is to be posted.

  • You must take down your flyers when your event is over.
  • Post only on bulletin boards, posting kiosks or sandwich boards. Do not post on walls, windows or doors. (However, event location signs may be placed on building entrance doors on the day of the event and then removed after the event.)
  • Save time by first sending your design to studentlife@georgefox.edu. Then, once approved via email, bring your posters to the Student Life Office in Hadlock to be stamped.

Find all the details you need in the Student Handbook under the Campus Display & Posting Policy section.
