Rotary Uncorked Auction   Part One

 

The Lake Forest-Lake Bluff Rotary believes literacy prevents poverty.  The proceeds from Rotary Uncorked will help fund projects that support this ideal, including College Bound Opportunities, a North Shore based charity.

 

College Bound Opportunities coaches economically disadvantaged students to realize their potential, graduate from college, pursue meaningful professions and inspire others to follow in their footsteps.   College Bound Opportunities draws its candidates from low and moderate income families in North Shore communities including Lake Bluff and Lake Forest.
