Enhance the quality of life for all people of Newaygo County and surrounding communities by connecting the passions of generous families, businesses, and individuals with community needs through grantmaking, scholarships, and community investment.
Fremont Area Community Foundation’s recent grantmaking is anchored by seven-figure support for local service networks, schools, and community facilities. The largest listed award went to TrueNorth Community Services in Fremont for a broad mix of hunger prevention, housing and family services, youth programs, and operating support. Another major award supported the Newaygo County Regional Educational Service Agency with early literacy, Parents as Teachers, summer enrichment, internships, and post-secondary access. Those grants show how the foundation combines direct service funding with longer-horizon investments in education and family stability. The foundation also backs place-based organizations that touch many parts of community life. The Arts Center for Newaygo County received multiple awards for operating support, Dogwood Center improvements, and programming tied to the Grand Rapids Ballet. Fremont Public Schools and Grant Public Schools each appear with large multi-purpose grants spanning student enrichment, trips, athletics, special education-related supports, and environmental learning. Across the record, the foundation funds operating support, program-specific work, and community infrastructure rather than a single narrow issue area.
Education is a consistent thread. The Newaygo County Regional Educational Service Agency received support for Parents as Teachers, early literacy, Summer ASD programming, College for Kids, Summer Internship, and access to post-secondary credentials. Fremont Public Schools was also funded for life skills, after-school programming, special education-related costs, student trips, athletics, and e-sports. Family stability and basic needs appear in multiple awards. TrueNorth Community Services received funding tied to hunger prevention, housing and family services, volunteer resource center work, and community connections. Love In the Name of Christ - Newaygo County was supported for Poverty to Prosperity Family Assistance and program support. Environmental and outdoor learning also show up in the record. Grant Public Schools received support for Sandy Beach Buffer Zone Project, Salmon in the Classroom, and Countywide STEAM Outdoor Education, linking conservation and student learning in the same grants.

Grant activity is highly concentrated in Michigan, with 99% of grants going to recipients in the HQ state. The foundation’s giving is local in scope, and recent recipients are centered in Fremont, Grant, White Cloud, and other Newaygo County communities. A few awards also reach nearby county geographies through scholarship programs in Lake, Mecosta, and Osceola counties. The top state by grant count is Illinois, but the grant list itself is almost entirely Michigan-based and all listed recipient-country data is in the US.
