Los Alamos Rotary 1312 Foundation

The Rotary Club of Los Alamos (Club 1312, Rotary District 5520) was officially chartered on August 19, 1966. Since its founding the club has combined local service with contributions to Rotary International’s global initiatives. Its charitable work is supported through the 501(c)(3) Los Alamos 1312 Foundation.

Rotarians’ work is both local and international. The club annually awards local scholarships and recognizes outstanding students, such as through the Great Expectations and Distinguished Service scholarships. We also recognize local small businesses through the Sonny Brown Business of the Year Award and provide grants to local nonprofits. Globally, the Club contributes to eradicating polio, clean water, hygiene education, and crisis response.
