The 2026 Incito Award recipient is Tino Rebottaro. Incito means to inspire, excite, spur, increase, hasten, urge forward. The Incito Award was established in 2011 to recognize a young person, age 40 or under, who has emerged as a community leader and demonstrates a commitment to volunteerism, philanthropy, and leadership in our community.
Rebottaro has been honored with the 2026 Incito Award by the Lenawee Community Foundation for his dedication to volunteerism and his lasting impact on the local community. A 2004 graduate of Tecumseh High School, Rebottaro attended Northwood University on a football scholarship, earning a bachelor’s degree in business management. He has shown sustained civic leadership as Board Chair of the Greater Lenawee Chamber of Commerce in 2025 and continues to serve on its Board of Directors. Rebottaro’s previous volunteer involvement also includes Big Brothers Big Sisters, Housing Help of Lenawee, Neighbors of Hope, the Tecumseh Chamber of Commerce, and as Chair of the Hospice of Lenawee Annual Giving Committee.
Currently, Rebottaro works as a Sales Producer for Iott Insurance Agency, where he combines his business expertise with a commitment to serving the community both professionally and personally.
Outside of work and volunteering, Rebottaro enjoys spending time outdoors—golfing, camping, and other activities—with his wife, Jessica, their son, Jackson, and a close circle of friends.
Rebottaro feels fortunate to live in Lenawee County with fellow community leaders who are equally dedicated to improving the county.
