Spanish American Club elects new board for 2018

By Herman Santa

The members of The Spanish American Club, Inc. elected a new board for the fiscal year 2018. The Annual General Assembly meeting was held on January 14, at the Polish American Social Club in Port St. Lucie.

Each year, in January the members elect new officers to help set organizational goals and to ensure that funds raised through the annual campaign are being invested wisely in the club’s strategic priority areas such as scholarships for low-income Hispanic students, donations of food baskets at Thanksgiving for needy families and collection of Christmas toys for disadvantaged families.

At the meeting, the members of the club elected Ruben Aleman, President; Nancy Rozon, Vice President; Luis Carrillo, Treasurer; Ray Guadalupe, Public Relations; Carlos Mejia, Director and Charles Quiles; Substitute.

Much of The Spanish American Club, Inc.’s success derives from strong volunteer leadership. For more than 25 years, The Spanish American Club, Inc. (SACI) has relied on the guidance and expertise of Hispanic leaders to make a positive impact in Martin and St. Lucie Counties through fundraising, volunteerism and character-building.

The Spanish American Club, Inc. is a non-profit corporation, established in 1992. It is the oldest social, civic, sport and benevolence organization on the Treasure Coast. The main goals of the club are to promote friendship and solidarity among its members and other non-profit organizations, through social, cultural and civic activities and to promote the knowledge of the Spanish-speaking countries’ geography, history, art, culture and folklore.
