Giving Glamour
In June, 2026, the Canton Community Fund provided support for community volunteers to give residents of United Helpers Rehabilitation and Senior Care a glam-up. Residents had their hair and makeup done and could choose from jewelry, crowns, flowers, and other accessories to don for professional photos. Copies of the photos were hung up around the facility and provided for gifts for family and friends.

Supporting a New Concert Series
In March, 2026, the Canton Community Fund voted to support Traditional Arts of Upstate New York (TAUNY) in creating a new concert series on Prentice Lane. With support from the Canton Community Fund, the Village of Canton installed a welcoming arch beautifully created by artist James Gonzalez in June 2025. The concert series will invite local musical artists to play in the alleyway for the enjoyment of residents and visitors on the last Friday of each month from May through September.
