Tax-Deductible Donations
Did you know that making a tax-deductible donation is not only a way to support a worthy cause but can also provide you with valuable tax benefits? By giving to The 12th Can, you’re not just helping alleviate food insecurity at Texas A&M; you’re also making a lasting impact through tax savings that could help reduce your taxable income. Every donation you make helps ensure the future of our pantry, and we appreciate your support in any form!
