Entirely student-operated, we manage every aspect of our on-campus food pantry, from placing food orders and sorting donations to staffing pantry openings. Our diverse team brings unique perspectives and a shared dedication to selflessly serving the Aggie community. Recognizing the importance of our work, we strive to ensure The 12th Can remains a dependable resource for all Aggies who need it. Our top priority is our clients’ comfort. We aim to create a welcoming shopping experience, offering a wide variety of nutritious food tailored to clients' preferences while preserving their anonymity. As part of the Aggie Family, it’s our honor to support our fellow Aggies!
