It starts with one can. To feed the hungry. To lift the spirit. To change the world. CANstruction®, a charity committed to ending hunger, is using ‘one can’ as a catalyst for change. One can to represent the building blocks of massive sculptures. One can to prove that every act of kindness makes a difference. Since 1992, CANstruction has contributed over 15 million pounds of food to community food banks demonstrating that we can win the fight against hunger.
CANstruction’s Design/Build Competition puts a visual spotlight on hunger while showcasing the community’s best and brightest.
Think you have what it takes to design and build a structure made of nothing more than canned food, ingenuity, and luck? Enter today. Get creative, help stop hunger. One can.
