The Puerto Rico Community Foundation announced the opening of the call for applications for the Fundación Sebastián Deliz Scholarship Fund, an initiative that seeks to support talented students from Colegio Rosa-Bell who demonstrate financial need, academic excellence, leadership, and community commitment.
Established on July 2, 1998, under the leadership of Giovanni Deliz, twin brother of the late Sebastián Deliz, along with family and close friends, the foundation honors and keeps alive Sebastián's legacy. Sebastián was a young man recognized for his outstanding academic achievements, natural leadership, and deep sense of respect and service towards others.
Currently, the foundation focuses its efforts on supporting students at Colegio Rosa-Bell, the institution where Sebastián and Giovanni had the opportunity to receive their academic education. The program offers supplementary financial aid to cover part of the tuition costs for students enrolled at the institution.
Scholarships range from 1,400 to 3,500 pesos per student, depending on financial need and tuition costs. The number of scholarships available will depend on the availability of funds.
