Benefiting people with disabilities and addressing charitable needs throughout Newaygo County.
The Amazing X Charitable Trust centers its giving on activities and programs that benefit people with disabilities and support general charitable purposes in Newaygo County and the surrounding area. The trust’s largest recent grant was $244,300 in 2025 to Fremont Area Community Foundation in Fremont, Michigan, followed by $243,300 in 2024 and $236,700 in 2023 to the same recipient. That multi-year pattern points to steady support rather than one-off project funding. Its public programs also show a local emphasis: disability services, general charitable needs, scholarship support for Newaygo County students, and grantmaking for community organizations. The trust includes both unrestricted charitable support and more targeted assistance, such as a program for adults seeking college or career training and a youth-led grantmaking track. Across the available data, the foundation’s work stays close to Newaygo County and nearby communities, with the grant structure built around local nonprofit services, education support, and basic community needs. The recent grant record also suggests a consistent relationship with a single community foundation partner in Fremont.
Disability-related support is a core theme. In 2025, the trust gave $244,300 to Fremont Area Community Foundation for activities and programs that benefit people with disabilities as well as general charitable purposes in Newaygo County and the surrounding area. The same purpose appears in the 2023 grant, showing a repeated focus over multiple years. Education is another visible area of support through scholarship programs for Newaygo County students, including adult students pursuing college or career training. The foundation also backs community-serving work through its Community Grants program, which awards grants to organizations throughout the community and aligns with community development, education, and poverty reduction. A separate Bridging Generations Fund supports healthy and fulfilling lives for older adults in Newaygo County.
Typical grant size is tightly clustered: the p25 is $238,350, the median is $240,000, and the p75 is $241,650. That narrow spread matches a small set of large annual grants rather than a wide range of award sizes. The recent record shows repeated awards to the same recipient across 2023, 2024, and 2025, indicating recurring support. The trust does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments. Several of its programs accept unsolicited applications, including scholarship and community grant tracks, and the general scholarship application is open year-round for adult students in one program.
