Donate A Share:

Food security continues to be challenging for our many community members.  We have set up a dedicated fund to receive your donations to help pay for fresh produce for students in need.  You may donate here:  https://foundation.wwu.edu/VikingSupportedAgriculture. 

To date, $1,719.00 has been donated by the campus community, supplying the equivalent of 140 weeks of fresh produce for our community members experiencing food insecurity. This food has gone directly to pop-up and campus pantries where it is most accessible. Please consider a donation today and thank you for your continued generosity!
