CANstruction Toronto build took place on May 15 and the completed “Canstructures” were judged by a jury and winners were announced at an evening reception on May 16.

CANstruction Toronto is one of the largest private donors to the Daily Bread Food Bank through an annual contest that challenges architectural and engineering firms to create structures using full cans of food which will be donated to the food bank. This was the first year of the event since it was put on hold in 2020 due to the pandemic. Construction Specifications Canada (CSC) was one of the silver sponsors of the event.

“Creativity, innovation, and corporate social responsibility come together at CANstruction,” says Neil Hetherington, CEO, Daily Bread Food Bank. “Through this incredible initiative, teams involved are not only helping to provide much needed food donations for families facing hunger, but also raising awareness about food insecurity, and having a direct impact in our community.”
