Canstruction Vancouver Reaches 1,000,000 Cans of Food Goal

Canstruction Vancouver announced that they will reach their target of raising 1 million cans of food for the Vancouver Food Bank after just 9 years of operation. “We originally thought that it would take us at least 10 years to raise one million cans, but it looks like we’ll hit our target this year – our 9th year,” said Janice Podmore, Chair Canstruction® Vancouver.  “Since its debut in 2003, Canstruction® Vancouver has provided over 961,330 cans of food to the Greater Vancouver Food Bank Society and this year we will add over 100,000 cans”. Canstruction would like to congratulate Vancouver on such a tremendous achievement.
