What is Canstruction®?
It starts with one can.

To feed the hungry. To lift the spirit.

To change the world.

Canstruction® is a global charity of the design & construction industry to help fight hunger in our communities.

Produced locally by Canstruction® Long Island, Inc., the event is a design/build competition involving five-person teams of architects, engineers, contractors and/or those professionals mentoring students, associations or businesses as they design and build giant self-supporting structures made entirely of canned food.  The structures remain on display to the public for two weeks, and then all food is donated to our local food bank, Long Island Cares, Inc., The Harry Chapin Food Bank.

The Canstruction® Long Island design/build competition puts a visual spotlight on hunger while showcasing the Long Island design community's best and brightest.  

Under the auspices of the Society for Design Administration
