The Canton Community Health Fund (CCHF) seeks applicants for money available to any nonprofit or community agency whose efforts contribute to the health and well-being of Canton. The organization also offers a scholarship to high school seniors and/or residents of Canton pursuing education in a health-related field.  CCHF is seeking applicants for both the grants and scholarships.

CCHF awards the Dr. Diters Scholarship annually to any Canton resident or Canton High School student, pursuing an education in a health-related field. Applications may be completed online through the CCHF website under “Scholarships” at cantoncommunityhealthfund.org.  The application deadline is April 1.

Grant applications from community groups are due by April 30. Applications may be completed online under “Grants” at cantoncommunityhealthfund.org.

CCHF is a private, nonprofit foundation run by an all-volunteer board of Canton residents. Founded over 50 years ago, CCHF's original funds came from generous donations from Canton residents to the Canton VNA. In 1997, a fund was established to ensure those donations stayed in Canton to benefit Canton residents. Since its founding, an all-volunteer board works to oversee the investment and the distribution of the funds.
