Food Pantry at Fairhaven College!
Come pick up food and drop off donations at the new food pantry across from the Main Office on the 3rd floor of Fairhaven College! Thanks to student staff and volunteers, it's well stocked with non-perishables like pasta and soup, shelf-stable produce like apples and potatoes, and a fridge stocked with fruits and veggies from the Outback Farm as they are harvested.
If you have any questions, requests, or need to report problems with the pantry, please contact kemptot@wwu.edu.
Outback Farm Receives "Community First" Grant
The Outback Farm is proud and honored to be recipients of the Whole Cities Foundation "Community First" grant! This will enable us to rehabilitate our chicken area and invest in shoulder-season microgreens production to feed WWU students facing food insecurity. To learn more, please visit WWU Alumni News.
Join us as we collaboratively create a playlist commemorating our process, growth, and community. Share songs that helped you survive, feel, and exist throughout this extraordinary year! We will collect these songs from the Fairhaven community to then make a playlist on Spotify that is open for all to listen and engage with. Please send any questions to Avry Richter, Kailey Droz , or Dr. Villicana.
Why Consider a Human Rights Minor?
The Human Rights minor will contribute to the development of students as well educated, active, and engaged citizens through a vibrant learning community. The
minor works off and expands the core values of Western and supplements academic majors in all programs/departments of the university.
