Supporting a Worthy Cause
Rhythm & Rawhide Reimagined will be an unforgettable evening of music supporting the Reno Rodeo Foundation's vital work. All proceeds will go directly toward the Foundation's efforts to support children with extraordinary needs through programs such as the Denim Drive, Reading Rooms, Rodeo Wish and Scholarships.
Denim Drive provides new clothing and hygiene items to abused and neglected children, ensuring they have the essentials needed for comfort and dignity. This program is crucial for children who have been removed from unsafe homes and placed into foster care or protective custody.
Rodeo Wish grants special wishes to children battling medical conditions, offering them unforgettable experiences and much-needed hope during challenging times. These wishes have included dream trips, specialized medical equipment and unique opportunities tailored to each child's needs and dreams.
Reading Rooms aim to provide comfort to children involved in family court proceedings by gifting them new books and teddy bears. This program helps to create a sense of normalcy and joy during an otherwise stressful and uncertain time for these young individuals.
Scholarships funded by the Foundation enable Northern Nevada students to pursue higher education and vocational training. Since its inception, the Reno Rodeo Foundation has awarded over $2 million in scholarships, supporting the academic aspirations of countless students and helping them to achieve their dreams.
Since 1986, the Reno Rodeo Foundation has made a significant impact in Northern Nevada, distributing over $8.3 million to support local children. The Foundation's mission to aid children in 14 Northern Nevada counties has been realized through generous community support and fundraising events like Rhythm & Rawhide Reimagined.
