Volunteer: Southside Canstructure JudgeIn-Person Judges Needed: Judges will evaluate middle and high school teams as they present large-scale structures made entirely from canned goods. This is part of a team-based STEAM challenge (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Math) that benefits the Virginia Peninsula Foodbank. Teams will be judged on creativity, structural integrity, visual impact, and how well they tie their design to a theme. The YVC Canstructure Competition brings together middle and high school students to fight hunger and serve their community in a big way. Guided by this year’s theme, Building a Brighter Future, teams use STEAM skills to design and build creative 3-D structures from hundreds of donated canned goods. After the competition, all of this shelf-stable food is donated to the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia & the Eastern Shore to help families in need. More than a design challenge, Canstructure raises funds and awareness for YVCHR, a nonprofit that provides youth with hands-on service experiences, leadership development, and team-building opportunities. Together, we’re inspiring tomorrow’s leaders while helping to end hunger today.
