Dear Friends,
As we reflect, one word comes to mind as the driving force of our Spring/early Summer here at Rodman for Kids: Connection.
In the last few months, we witnessed powerful connections in action:
- We brought together hundreds of riders, volunteers, and cheerleaders for the 35th Annual Rodman Ride for Kids, a celebration of community and collective impact.
- We introduced the 1st Annual Rodman Ride for Kids Jr. for kids ages 4-12, proving that making a difference and coming together in support of others has no age limit.
- We watched thousands of kids experience the magic of live performance through our Theatre for Kids program, attending shows like Kimberly Akimbo, The Little Mermaid, and Little Women.
- And we deepened relationships across our network of Charity Partners – building trust, sharing knowledge, and laying the foundation for new collaborations.
At Rodman for Kids, we believe that real impact doesn’t happen in isolation – it happens through connection and community. When organizations come together to share resources and ideas, when young people connect with stories on stage, when our community rallies behind a common cause, we’re reminded that connection is what fuels change.
As we continue celebrating 35 years of impact, we are more committed than ever to nurturing meaningful connections – with our Charity Partners, with the kids we collectively serve, and with each of you. Thank you for being part of this community. Your support helps us build a more connected, collaborative, and compassionate future.
With gratitude,
Amy Rossman
Executive Director, Rodman for Kids
