The hospitality industry is a great industry when you want to make a difference in the economy of a destination since you can see results every time a guest visits and has a great experience.
The Scholarship Foundation has awarded more than 175 scholarships, totaling more than 1.6 million dollars in scholarships. Apart from subsidizing studies for its scholars, The Scholarship Foundation is a valuable tool for them because of the networking opportunities it provides and also because scholars have the chance to receive mentoring from Puerto Rico's top leaders in the Hospitality industry.
