Canstruction

In partnership with Midland County Schools and the Midland Mall, EFPN hosts Canstruction – a charitable event designed to raise hunger awareness while bringing students together to design and build artistic structures made entirely of canned and boxed food using STEAM principles, such as engineering, mathematics, arts, design, 3D modeling and problem solving.

First launched in 2020, the event brings together students from across the county and also allows the public to vote for their favorites through the display time. All of the proceeds and donated canned foods from the event support EFPN and our mission.
