Canstruction® is a unique nonprofit organization that holds annual design-build competitions to construct colossal structures made from canned food. After Build Day, the creations are on display to the public as a giant art exhibition. Once viewing concludes, all food cans are donated to the Merrimack Valley Food Bank. Wilson Butler Architects couldn't be more excited to participate for the seventh year!

The Merrimack Valley Food Bank has been feeding local families since 1991. The organization distributes food to more than 50,000 individuals a month in MA and Southern NH. It is estimated that food insecurity more than doubled in America due to the economic crisis brought on by the pandemic, affecting as many as 23% of households. The Food Bank needs our help to get food to those families in need.

Wilson Butler Architects wants to continue supporting the Merrimack Valley Food Bank. We will be participating in Canstruction again for the 8th year. With your help last year WBA raised $5,000 and this year we're hoping to surpass that by raising $6,000 for the Food Bank. We hope that you will help us with our effort! Did you know that $30 donated provides 90 meals, $50 donated provides 150 meals, and $100 donated provides 300 meals? 100% of the money raised will go directly to the Food Bank when we donate the cans used for our structure.

Over the years the WBA team has won multiple design awards, but most importantly has donated over 15,000 cans of food to the food insecure of Massachusetts. Help us past the 20,000 mark as we build another great structure!

Thank you for your support and stay tuned to see what we build!
