Latrobe Fund

The Latrobe Fund was founded in January of 2019 by two philanthropists with residences in the Latrobe and Lake Tahoe areas. They are business owners who are making a difference for local non-profits in El Dorado County through their grants.

Currently the funding is focused on non-profits serving El Dorado County. The grant process is not competitive. Each grant request is reviewed on its own merits. There is not a specific granting cycle; grants are made at the discretion of the fund owners.
