Rosebush Veterans Community Fund

Assets of the Rosebush Veterans Club have grown significantly since the group started in the 1950s. And no matter what happens to the club in the future, members have taken action to ensure its property and financial resources benefit the Rosebush community in perpetuity.

The Rosebush Veterans Community Fund was established in 2021. Each year, earnings from the endowment will go to initiatives and activities in Rosebush. Club Finance Officer Jim McConnell said the possibilities are endless, depending on what residents and community leaders need.

“It could be something for the parks, the township or village, fireworks, a Christmas party at Rosebush Manor, something for our Memorial Day Service or for military funerals,” McConnell said. “It’s up to the community to be creative.”

“It’s nice to live someplace where there’s strong community spirit,” he said. “Most club members are lifelong residents here. We want to ensure, even when we are no longer around, that our nearly 70 years of assets always benefit the Rosebush community.”
