The mission of Koz’s Kids is to assist the children of our community
and to ensure that they receive the resources and services required
to meet their fundamental needs.
In 2007, the Reno Rodeo
Foundation was approached by the friends and colleagues of Cheryl
Kosewicz (1971-2007) to assist them in forming an organization to
honor Cheryl's memory.
Cheryl was a woman of
many passions. She was a star basketball player with the UNLV Lady
Rebels, she boxed, she competed in triathlons. In her youth,
she was a High School Rodeo participant. In her professional
life, Cheryl was a Deputy District Attorney, first in Clark County
and then in Washoe County, where she prosecuted sexual abuse cases.
Cheryl's friends and
colleagues are endeavoring to capture her spirit in the projects of
Koz's Kids which will benefit children who have been placed in
emergency protective custody and foster care.
The immediate goals of the Koz's Kids Advisory Board is to assist in
fundraising endeavors and the distribution of collected assets to
children alleged to have been abused or neglected and receiving
services of the Washoe County Department of Social Services.
Koz's Kids is committed to working in association with the
Reno Rodeo Foundation and individuals in the community who share its
vision.
