Canton Community Foundation



In 1989, a group of community leaders foresaw the quality community Canton Township would become in western Wayne County. An important part of that vision included the creation of a 501(c)3 nonprofit community organization to support the charitable, cultural, educational, recreational, and scientific needs of the community. Thus, the Canton Community Foundation was founded.
