The Rosmann Family Foundation concentrates its giving on local, faith-linked human service work in southeastern Wisconsin, with a strong emphasis on programs serving vulnerable children. Most support is channeled to a repeat grantee that runs direct services for at-risk youth, and the foundation also funds church-based human concerns programming.
Highly concentrated and local: few grants, large proportion of funds to one recurring grantee (Our Next Generation), plus smaller support for a local church’s human concerns programs.
A defining pattern of the Rosmann Family Foundation C/o Clement Rosmann Trustee is its repeated support for Our Next Generation, a Milwaukee organization serving vulnerable kids. The foundation made three large grants to that group across 2023, 2024, and 2025, including its two largest recent awards of $50,000 and $45,000. That repeat relationship shows a focused preference for direct-service work over broad, multi-category giving. The foundation’s recent grants also point to a faith-linked human services profile. In 2025, it supported Milwaukee Central SDA Church for human concerns programs, while also funding local health and culture-related work in Milwaukee and nearby communities. Its giving includes support tied to heart disease and cystic fibrosis, alongside a grant for promoting ethnic cultures. Across the recent record, the foundation appears to concentrate on practical community needs in Wisconsin rather than wide geographic dispersal. The pattern is centered on youth welfare, church-based social services, and targeted local nonprofit programming, with grants sized from small event-level support to major program gifts.
Youth-serving direct services are the clearest theme in the foundation’s recent record. It gave $50,000 in 2024 and $45,000 in 2025 to Our Next Generation for programs for vulnerable kids, matching a prior $45,000 grant in 2023 for the same purpose. Faith-based human services are another visible area. In 2025, the foundation awarded $22,000 to Milwaukee Central SDA Church for human concerns programs, linking its support to church-based community care. Health-related giving is present in smaller grants. The foundation gave $4,031 to the American Heart Association Heart and Stroke Ball Milwaukee for cures and care for heart disease and $2,000 to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation for cures and care for cystic fibrosis. It also made a $4,000 grant to Milwaukee World Festival to promote ethnic cultures, showing that cultural preservation sits alongside its human services and health-oriented support.
Recent grants range from $2,000 to $50,000, with a typical size of $4,016 at the 25th percentile, $22,000 at the median, and $45,000 at the 75th percentile. The pattern suggests a mix of modest community grants and larger program awards. Giving is highly recurring in at least one relationship: Our Next Generation appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025, each time for programs for vulnerable kids. The foundation is a private family foundation and does not fund individuals. Its recent record also shows no program-related investments.
