Have boxes? Consider taking them to mailroom for students to use

April 19th, 2022

Does your department have quality boxes? If so, consider giving them to students to pack their belongings for the move home or onward!

Please make sure all boxes are sturdy and either can close completely or have a lid. You can deliver them to the mailroom on the Newberg campus, where students will pick them up free of charge. This is a small but impactful way we can help students Be Known!

Questions? Reach out to Megan Fisher at ext. 2112 or Richard Silver (rsilver@georgefox.edu) in the mailroom.
