Can-Struction Contest 2021
Our 3rd Annual "Can-Struction Contest" for Hunger Action Month took place Sept. 21-25, 2021. The idea behind the contest is for church groups, businesses, school classes, and other organizations to collect canned and dry goods and build an artistic sculpture out of those food items. COM then judges each creation to find the best one and the food collected gets donated to COM's food pantry at the end to help out families here in Polk County.
