Bruin Discounts, the new digital discount card, can be found by logging in to igfu.georgefox.edu on your mobile device.
If you do not have a smartphone or if you rely on your spouse to take advantage of the discounts offered to our George Fox community, please fill out this form to request a printed Bruin Discounts card.
- The card does not have the participating businesses listed, as in the past, since the number of businesses has outgrown the number that can be printed on the card.
- The card does contain a QR code and web address where a list of participating businesses can be found.
If you have a smartphone, we ask that you use the Bruin Discounts site rather than a card. The digital format keeps track of usage so our participating businesses can use that data to inform their discount offer decisions.
Here are a few of the businesses that are offering a discount on Bruin Discounts:
- Coffee Cottage
- Dairy Queen
- McDonald’s
- Newberg Bakery
- Cameo Theatre
- Ray’s Produce

While there is no requirement for any signage or painted curbs to indicate “No Parking,” Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) 811.550(16) prohibits parking within 10 feet of a fire hydrant.
Besides the financial penalties that you could incur from the city of Newberg, you could be delaying firefighters from getting water into a burning building when you block a fire hydrant.
Please help us to be good neighbors by being courteous of others and keeping our community safe.

George Fox is once again partnering with Hillsboro Airporter to provide a shuttle service to Portland International Airport for Thanksgiving break.
Students will be expected to work directly with Hillsboro Airporter to reserve their spot. See the details below:
- The cost for one passenger is $65 plus a tip. Each additional passenger is $3.
- Each shuttle can fit five to six passengers. The cost per student is based on the total number of passengers during the scheduled times, so if you can fill one shuttle with six passengers, the cost per student could be as low as $15.
- Make your reservations more than 24 hours in advance and Hillsboro Airporter can group you together. To reserve your spot, click here.
- Hillsboro Airporter accepts cash or credit card for payment. Parents can call Hillsboro Airporter with a credit card to pay for their student’s fare.
