FitzGerald Associates Architects and Eriksson Engineering Associates, Ltd. (EEA) have teamed up in 2014 to participate in CANstruction Chicago. CANstruction Chicago brings together organizations from the A/E/C and other industries to help those in need. Each year, teams spend months designing structures made entirely of canned foods. Following the build and display of these structures (August 14th through September 8th at the Merchandise Mart), all cans and additional funds are directly donated to the Greater Chicago Food Depository for distribution to children and families in need.
FitzGerald and Eriksson are poised to put a unique spin on a classic concept in support of this cause. We’ve supplied the time and expertise; now we need your contribution to assist in preventing hunger. Please consider helping us fund this effort and show your support for ending hunger in and around Chicago.
Contributing on behalf of your company? Donate early to have your organization’s logo featured as a supporter on our team t-shirts and board, on display at the Merchandise Mart during Build Night and for the duration of the event.
Every little bit helps—please visit our fundraising page today and share with colleagues who might be interested: http://www.youcaring.com/nonprofits/creative-canstruction-to-help-feed-the-hungry-/196231
