Cosmo poker fundraiser is officially rescheduled and all Rockford events will be held on Sundays at this time. Please click on the link below to volunteer - thank you!
Poker is back! For over 5 years, the Rockford Cosmopolitan Club has been able to use our not-for-profit license to host quarterly poker events in coordination with Rockford Charitable Games Association, and raise funds throughout the calendar year. In a nutshell, the club splits the profits of each poker night with Rockford Charitable Games. This is a win/win for the club. and Rockford Charitable Games. On most poker nights, we average between $1,750 to $2,000 in profits to the club. In order for us to earn those profits, we need 3 shifts of volunteers for 4 hours a piece with 3 people per shift. (9 total people) Our volunteers simply need to run the cashiers desk. NO gambling is required. You are NOT even required to like the game of poker. If you divide $2,000 by 9 people, that means that the club receives over $200 per volunteer that assists on each poker night. ($200/4 hours = over $50/hour per volunteer) Your volunteer efforts are needed, please join us for a night of camaraderie! PLEASE CLICK HERE TO VOLUNTEER |

This is surely to be a powerful lunch meeting. We will have Nick Durick present to us live from Thailand (which will be midnight their time) to share his and his wife Heather's journey from Rockford. They sold their life's belongings and moved to Thailand several years ago where they are working to stop as well as care for victims of human trafficking. We hope you'll join us to hear their story. Some of you may even remember Nick who for years was in automotive sales with the Anderson Group here in Rockford. |
