Canes Harvest is GSW's community food and essential items pantry, located on the 3rd floor of the Student Success Center. It is a resource available to faculty, staff, and students who are in need of essential items. We understand that sometimes, everyone could use a little extra help, and we're here to support you.
Our pantry stocks a variety of essential items year-round, including frozen foods, non-perishable food, and personal care products. Whether you're facing a temporary shortage or simply need a hand, Canes Harvest is here to ensure you have access to the items you need to get by. Feel free to stop by during regular hours, and don’t hesitate to take what you need!

We appreciate any and all donations to the GSW Canes Harvest. The pantry accepts donations every Monday through Friday, from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Donation drives will also be held during the school semester.
Donations can be dropped off on the 3rd floor of the SSC, or arrangements for an on-campus pick-up can be made. Please be sure to check in at the SES front desk upon arrival!
Any food that is "shelf-stable" or non perishable (it can be kept in the pantry and it won't go bad). Remember - only donate food that hasn't reached its "sell-by" date yet! Some examples include:
Just a few examples of some Canes necessities include, but are certainly not limited to:
Items needing refrigeration (this does not include frozen items), expired food, items without an expiration date, foods that may have been contaminated/damaged, and items that are open should not be donated to the pantry.
Certain items can be requested for the pantry, but the items must be a reasonable necessity. For item request contact Alejandro Espitia, alejandro.espitia@gsw.edu.
