Interfaith and Community Service Challenge

George Fox joins the President's Interfaith and Community Service Campus Challenge
Facilitated by the Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships

The Center for Peace and Justice/Center for Global Studies director Clint Baldwin wrote a proposal that was accepted by the campus challenge project. He and Joel Perez, Dean of Transitions and Inclusion, traveled to the initiative's national kick-off event Aug. 1-2, 2011, at the White House. This initiative is encouraging institutions of higher education to make the vision for interfaith cooperation and community service a reality on campuses across the country. The White House will recognize those colleges and universities who create and implement the best plans in summer 2012.
