14th scholarship from the “Spanish American Club, Inc.”

By Herman Santa

Dr. Enrique Ospina, President of the Spanish American Club, Inc. “S.A.C.l.”, Herman Santa, director of the Scholarship Program, William Preciado and Isa Bryson, members of the S.A.C.l. Scholarship Committee met Saturday May 20th to select to the winners of the 2006 scholarship.  Jessica Benitez, Mexican of Port St Lucie and Miriam Hernandez, Guatemalan of 1ndiantown were selected among a pool of six Hispanic candidates as the winners of the-SACI Scholarship this year.

S.AC.I raises funds throughput social activities such as: dances, cruises, golf, dominoes and bowling tournaments.  The scholarship funds are forwarded to the Indian River Community College to help students of limited economic resources. SA.C:L is a nonprofit Organization, founded 1992 to unite Hispanics and Americans of the Treasure Coast through cultural, recreational and fund-raising activities.

The Club awards its scholarship every year in the spring.  In order to qualify for it, the applicant must be a High School student of Martin or St. Lucie public High School, must have a minimum average grade of 3.0 and must speak, write and read Spanish.  I want to thank the members of the club, the Hispanic establishments and all of those who helped us raise funds for the scholarship.
