Thanks to their Community Fund at the Northern New York Community Foundation, Kenneth V. and Jeannette Remp Sawyer continue to support the communities they loved years after they passed away. Improving safety at a Lewis County attraction is just one more way they keep giving.

A $3,000 grant from the Kenneth V. and Jeannette Remp Sawyer Community Fund of the Northern New York Community Foundation will help The Flywheels And Pulleys Association repair and resurface the driveway at the organization’s grounds to ensure safe access for all patrons.

The association features several vintage gas and steam engines, tractors and other farm and home equipment to educate the community about the importance of these machines during different eras of time.

We are pleased to announce the 2022-2023 class of Jefferson-Can Community Scholars. On Wednesday, students met program founder and donor Stephen H. Can and his wife, Pamela, during a luncheon at Jefferson Community College.

The Northern New York Community Foundation administers the Jefferson-Can Community Scholars program in collaboration with Mr. Can, a Jefferson Community College alumnus, and the Jefferson Community College Foundation.

The Jefferson-Can Community Scholars Program awards high school seniors who are in the top 15 percent of their graduating class a merit-based scholarship of at least $1,200 for the first two semesters of study at Jefferson Community College. Since its inception in 2007, the Jefferson-Can Community Scholars program has provided scholarships totaling approximately $1.6 million, supporting 759 students.

Mr. Can is a former senior advisor to the Blackstone Group. He is the past executive chairman and founder of Strategic Partners, joining the investment bank DLJ (Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette) in 2000 as a managing director. He is the former executive chairman of Strategic Partners, Blackstone Group’s $31 billion private equity business. A founding member of Strategic Partners, he transitioned from co-head to executive chairman in February 2019.

Mr. Can earned an Associate of Science in Business Administration from Jefferson Community College in 1980; a Bachelor of Arts, magna cum laude, in Accounting from SUNY Plattsburgh in 1982; and a Master of Science in Finance from the Krannert Business School at Purdue University in 1984 where he was named outstanding graduate instructor. Mr. Can subsequently earned a Certified Public Accountant license and Certified Management Accountant and Certified Financial Manager designations. He lives in Pennsylvania with his wife, Pamela A. Can.
