We are one of 58 clubs located in the areas of the Mid-Atlantic, Southwest, Mid-West and Western Canada. In 1985, the Norfolk Club and its sister clubs of the Capital Federation helped spearhead the “Million Dollar Connection” to provide the million dollars of seed money to start a diabetes institute for research and treatment at Eastern Virginia Medical School, known today as the Strelitz Diabetes Research Center.

All donations are directed to the Cosmopolitan Club of Norfolk Foundation, Inc. (501(c)(3)), to be used for their intended purpose.
