Latrobe Rotary C.O.O.L.
Community Outreach Opportunities of Latrobe
At the Rotary Club of Latrobe, we are passionate about giving back to our community through meaningful service. That’s why we launched Latrobe Rotary C.O.O.L.—an initiative dedicated to teaming up with local nonprofits to assist with their vital programs and events. C.O.O.L. is all about creating opportunities for our Rotarians and community volunteers to make a difference in Latrobe and beyond.
