Your Home Away From Home

Support Local Students

Learn how your donation supports the R House' ministry, which helps students grow in faith and find community. The page details how contributions fund staff, programs, and outreach, and provides information on becoming a monthly partner. All donations are tax-deductible. Your partnership is vital to our mission of ending food insecurity on campus. Every contribution, big or small, makes a direct and meaningful impact. Here are the best ways you can help:
  • Food Pantry: We gratefully accept non-perishable food donations, knowing each one goes directly to a student in need. Your contribution helps keep our pantry shelves full, ensuring no student has to face food insecurity alone.

  • Funding: Monetary gifts allow us the flexibility to purchase fresh food and fill specific needs for our students. All financial donations are tax-deductible.

  • Donation Boxes: We invite local churches and businesses donation boxes. It’s a powerful way to show your commitment to the well-being of University of Idaho students. Hosting requires minimal effort on your part; we provide the donation box, handle all setup, and arrange for regular collections to ensure a smooth process for your team.
For more information check out our PARTNERSHIP page.
