Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Food
Mission: Canstruction is using one can of food 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 17.5 million pounds of food to community food banks demonstrating that we can win the fight against hunger.
Programs: Canstruction holds annual design and build competitions to construct structures made entirely out of canned food. In each city after the structures are built and the winners declared the creation goes on view to the general public as an art exhibit. At the close of the competitions all of the food used in the structure is donated to the local food banks for distribution to community emergency feeding programs.
