Photos from previous CANstruction events:
It starts with one can. To feed the hungry. To lift the spirit. To change the world. CANstruction is a charity committed to ending hunger, using 'one can' as a catalyst for change.
Every month, over 500,000 New Jerseyans access hunger relief programs supported by the Community Food Bank of NJ. New Jersey's design/build competition puts a visual spotlight on hunger while showcasing the state's best and brightest designers.
Think you have what it takes to design and build a structure entirely out of canned food? Enter today! Get creative and help.
