SWAN is an active partner with the Stark Community Foundation. Each board member has completed a course of training through the Foundation. The Foundation has been very generous in providing grant moneys to enable us to enlarge and improve the Neighborhood Garden each year and to provide activities for youth and the culturally diverse groups in our community. SWAN is a member of the Neighborhood Leadership Council that meets monthly at the Stark Community Foundation. Sign Pro of Canton, Inc.. donated the sign at the community garden on the northeast corner of Union and High SW. Sue Akers of Sign Pro is a graduate of Neighborhood Leadership Training and has been a generous donor of time and gifts for our community Christmas parties. In 2005 Belden Brick donated money to get our name registered with the State and Federal Governments so we could set up a checking account and take preliminary steps toward having our own 501C3 designation. Several area businesses have donated money for SWAN Christmas parties. These include M & E Body Shop, Athens Restaurant,.Arcardia Bar & Grill, and Everhard Products. . Neighbors have donated gift certificates, gifts, and hours of time. In 2006 Santa rode to the party in a fire truck, and firemen handed out treats to the children. Many of our events were hosted at the Goodwill cafeteria when it was still located at 9th and Cleveland.
