Thailand faced one of the most severe natural calamities this year, a massive flood that affected over 12.8 million people.

We've always been big fans of people or companies that work for a cause, with a mission to bring about a positive change in the world.

With every competition, thousands of hungry people are fed and the art helps in spreading awareness about hunger and how one can contribute to overcome this issue. In 2010, Canstruction raised over 2 million pounds of food, after donating it to food banks they managed to provide 1.5 million meals. Now, isn't that something?

"Architects, engineers, designers, contractors, students, and the local community come together to raise canned food to donate to local food banks each year." describes their website.
