Honolulu architects and builders are stacking thousands of food cans into giant sculptures to feed people through the Hawaii Foodbank, good news for local families needing food help.

• Eight to ten teams of architects, engineers and contractors are building huge structures made entirely of full food cans.
• Every can goes to the Hawaii Foodbank afterward, adding up to about 40,000 pounds of food.
• This year's theme marks the foodbank's 100th year, with each sculpture styled after a different decade.
• The displays open to the public Monday, September 14 through the 18th in the downtown lobby of Central Pacific Bank, a new location this year.
• A People's Choice vote runs alongside it at a dollar per vote, with no cap, and all the money goes to the foodbank.

Outlook: The sculptures come down after September 18, when the cans and the donated cash head to the foodbank.
