Canstruction 2015

Canstruction Belton is an event in which teams from the community build enormous structures out of canned goods, which are then used to fill the pantry of Helping Hands Ministry. The structures are judged by a celebrity jury and awarded at the Awards Dinner. Residents from the community are invited to view the structures throughout the weekend with only a canned good or dollar to be donated as admission.  Each guest has the opportunity to vote for his or her favorite structure; the winner is awarded the Community Favorite at the Awards Dinner on Saturday evening. 100% of the food and donations collected from the event are directly used to minister to our neighbors in need.

 

Altrusa International of Temple, Inc. and First United Methodist Church of Belton won "People's Choice".  The structure comprised of 5,300 cans officially!  An estimated 45,000 cans were collected at this year's event.
