Rapid City Cosmopolitan Club
                       What is a Cosmopolitan Club
 
Cosmopolitan International is a chartered not-for-profit civic service organization that was founded in 1918.  It consists of some 65 clubs with a membership of approximately 1800 in the United States and Canada.  The International organization consists of six federations. Cosmopolitan International represents all the Clubs in the United States and Canada and is the best involved in organizing many service projects.  The major project is Diabetes Research.  There is an annual meeting each July hosted by a different city, where members exchange ideas and learn the latest advance in diabetes research.
 
The Rapid City Cosmopolitan Club was founded in 1929.  It is presently the second largest club in the organization with approximately 100 members.  Rapid City is part of the North Central Federation with approximately 200 members in four clubs.

 (1) A person with a passion to raise awareness for diabetes. 
 (2) An organization that has given $5 million+ toward a cure                   .
