Returning this spring, Canstruction Toronto is a non-profit annual design and build competition in support of the Daily Bread Food Bank. Each participating team builds a structure entirely from canned foods. For 15 years, the Canstruction competition has helped to decrease hunger and fight poverty in the city.
Since 1992, Canstruction has contributed more than 17.5 million pounds of food to food programs around the world, demonstrating that we can win the fight against hunger.
