Students drive out-of-state to reach as many people as possible.
If you see anyone holding one of these cans, please donate! Students make great efforts to raise as much money as possible. Sadly, some of them have lost their life along the way.

I'm heart broken for my AXO sisters at Penn State, and her family and friends. A pledge sister was killed in a car crash during my sophomore year and it was devastating; I'm so sad for our PSU chapter, as well as the TKEs and everyone involved.
I didn't realize what canning was, but read that this is not the first fatality. I know you can't keep everyone safe all the time...It's just a real tragedy for everyone.
