The One Can Society is Extra Table’s monthly giving program that makes it simple and powerful for anyone to help fight hunger in Mississippi, one month at a time. This special group recognizes caring individuals and households who commit to giving at least $5 each month on an ongoing basis to provide food for neighbors in need.

​

Membership in the One Can Society is open to everyone. Whether you choose to give $5, $10, $20, or more each month, your regular contributions add up to make a big impact over time. Monthly giving provides Extra Table with reliable, predictable funding that is essential to keeping food on the shelves of 63 food pantry and soup kitchen partners across the state, every single month of the year.

​

One Can Society members can direct their monthly gifts wherever their heart leads them, supporting general food purchasing, helping a specific food pantry in their own community, or contributing to administrative needs that keep Extra Table running efficiently. Gifts can be made automatically via credit card, bank draft, check, or online donation, making it easy to maintain your support without having to think about it each month.

​

The name “One Can” is a reminder that one person can make a difference, and that one can of food, like a can of tuna packed with protein, can bring comfort and nutrition to a family facing hunger. Together, these small monthly gifts create a steady flow of resources that help Extra Table buy and deliver healthy, shelf-stable food at the lowest possible cost, multiplying every dollar’s impact.

​

As a token of gratitude, One Can Society members are recognized annually on Extra Table’s online Donor Wall and receive a welcome packet with a dated sticker to proudly display their commitment to ending hunger. Each year, members receive a new sticker and a special thank-you to celebrate their continued generosity.

​

Joining the One Can Society is one of the easiest and most effective ways to help feed your neighbors, because every month, your support puts meals on the table for someone who needs them most.
