2024-2025
Welcome!
On behalf of the Cosmopolitan Club of Rockford and the Board of Directors, I would like to welcome you!
If you are new to Cosmo, our mission is to contribute to community well-being through charitable donations and volunteer service with a special emphasis on supporting efforts to prevent and find a cure for diabetes.
Our annual Cosmo Charity Golf Classic Play Day and Charity Poker Tournament started us off for the season and was a record-breaking success! Our thanks to all those involved with organizing and volunteering for the event. Of course, a special thanks to the sponsors and to Hard Rock Casino for being our premier sponsor. In 2024, we netted a record of over $60,000!
Every November, our second major fundraiser is the popular Poinsettia Plant Sale. This sale raises approximately $35,000 each year. We strive to have beautiful plants that last for many weeks past the holiday season. Plants will be available on December 6th & 7th. Then, our final fundraiser for our season is our March Madness event. We start the NCAA Men’s Basketball playoffs with a wonderful dinner and raffle draw down.
What sets us apart from other organizations? We spend time together outside of our weekly meetings and fundraisers. Social events are a big part of who we are. It makes for camaraderie and great memories!
If you have an interest in being a Rockford Cosmo – I would encourage you to contact me or any other member and ask how you can be a part of Rockford’s best club!
Sincerely,
John R Johnson
President 2024-2025
