Crown Prince Helps Canstruction Fight Hunger – One Can at a Time

After supporting Canstruction in New York City last fall, we couldn’t be more excited to get involved here in our own backyard! Crown Prince is proud to have donated 550 cases (6,600 cans) of Crown Prince Fancy White Crab Meat to Canstruction Orange County for the design built by the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM).

What is Canstruction?

Canstruction is an international movement to fight hunger, one can at a time. For each Canstruction event, local businesses, schools and organizations build larger-than-life sculptures out of cans of nonperishable food. After public exhibition, judging, and quite a bit of fun, the food is donated to local food banks and anti-hunger organizations.

Canstruction Orange County takes place each September in conjunction with the Festival of Children. This year’s 14 sculptures consist of 90,000 cans – that’s 60,000 pounds of food that will be donated to the Orange County Food Bank!
