Colorado State University Students, right here in Fort Collins, are raising awareness about hunger during homecoming weekend. The students will be using donated canned food items as a way to raise awareness for helping the hungry.

CANStruction is part of the annual Cans Around the Oval food drive which takes place from Sept. 17th through October 14th, with a fun, final collection event on the 14th. A total of 15 student teams are participating this year, and each will be creating structures out of the donated food items. You can vote on which structure you like the best and help with donations of food and money, with all money going straight to the Food Bank Of Larimer County. Drop all donations off at the Lory Student Center Sculpture Garden-you will see the CANStruction structures there as well-between 1:30pm and 6pm on Friday Oct. 9th. Let’s make this year the best one yet for helping the hungry!

Last year’s event raised approximately 10,000 pounds of food for the hungry and it will be exciting to see if this year that number can be topped!
