Join Chen Moore and Associates in the fight against hunger by helping us support the Palm Beach County Food Bank at CANstruction 2019!

Funds raised will be used to buy cans of food for our CANSculpture that will be donated to the Palm Beach County Food Bank. Our team will be building our sculpture at The Gardens Mall on May 5. At the end of the two-week exhibition on May 19, each one of the sculptures is “decanstructed” and the food is donated to the Palm Beach County Food Bank. In the past, over 32,000 pounds of food was collected from these sculptures and distributed to hungry individuals and families in our community.
