JKAE is proud to team up with Sierra Nevada Job Corps for another year of the Food Bank of Northern Nevada’s CANstruction event!

Out theme this year, “Feeding the Wild”, represents the enduring connection between wildlife, water, and community. Together, these cans form not just a bear, but a reminder that small actions add up. It’s proof that when we work together, we CAN make a difference, helping to nourish families across our community while raising awareness about sustainability, conservation, and community resilience. Because when it comes to helping others, you really can’t BEAR not to.

Voting is open now through Monday, May 4!
