This year scholarship committee Chair by Nancy Rozon and Co-chair by Evelyn Carrillo along with the board of directors Carlos Bonet, President; Nancy Rozon, Vice President; Evelyn Carrillo, Secretary; Josephine Guadalupe, Treasurer; Vivian Megaro, Public Relations and Mary Figliola, Director did a magnificent job selecting the students and running the program smoothly.

The scholarship was established in 1992 for low-income students. Over the past 33 years, the club has awarded more than $58,000 in scholarships to 80 High School seniors of Martin and St. Lucie counties. The board raises money for the scholarships by having garage sales, 50/50 raffles at the monthly dance parties and committee events.  The board also organizes other events such as picnics, cruises, and garage sales.

The mission of the club is to promote friendship and solidarity among its members, neighbors, and other nonprofit organizations of the Treasure Coast through cultural, social, civic, charity and sports activities to promote knowledge of the Spanish speaking countries, their geography, history, art and folklore.
