Since then, there have been many who have benefited from the philanthropic investment of the <strong>Gonzalo Aponte Foundation Fund<\/strong> which already exceeds one million dollars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For <strong>Teresita Batlle<\/strong>, wife of <strong>Gonzalo Mario Aponte<\/strong> \u2013 son of don Gonzalo \u2013, the philanthropic vehicle they found in the <strong>Puerto Rico Community Foundation<\/strong> (FCPR) has fostered an unbreakable chain of love in communities across the island because those who receive have, in turn, become givers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cThe students have learned to share what they have during the community service they perform as part of their grant.

The fund has benefited 46 college students and 25 organizations. Most of the students and organizations have had the opportunity to receive financial support on more than one occasion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The parents' seed...<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The origin of family philanthropy dates back to the 1970s when Don Gonzalo, the father, and his wife, <strong>Mary Elsa Otero Vassallo<\/strong>, \u201cDon Gonzalo and Mary Elsa wanted to do something; they were born philanthropists,\u201d Teresita recalls. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Donativo-a-OSFL-Fam-Gonzalo-Aponte-041-min-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"10142\" data-link=\"https:\/\/fcpr.org\/?attachment_id=10142\" class=\"wp-image-10142\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Donativo-a-OSFL-Fam-Gonzalo-Aponte-041-min-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Donativo-a-OSFL-Fam-Gonzalo-Aponte-041-min-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Donativo-a-OSFL-Fam-Gonzalo-Aponte-041-min-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Donativo-a-OSFL-Fam-Gonzalo-Aponte-041-min-1536x1021.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Donativo-a-OSFL-Fam-Gonzalo-Aponte-041-min-2048x1362.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/DSC_0108-min-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"10143\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/DSC_0108-min-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/fcpr.org\/?attachment_id=10143\" class=\"wp-image-10143\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/DSC_0108-min-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/DSC_0108-min-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/DSC_0108-min-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/DSC_0108-min-1536x1021.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/DSC_0108-min-2048x1362.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\"><em>To the left in the center, Mary Elsa Otero Vassallo.

Later, Mary Elsa decided to reach out to FCPR to find out how she could make the family\u2019s philanthropic legacy more impactful. That\u2019s when she began discussions with Ethel R\u00edos de Betancourt, then president of FCPR, and Matilde Urrutia, director of Development, because they needed an organization to facilitate the philanthropic process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFor us, it was the best way to carry out our philanthropic mission, and we knew that those two knew exactly what needed to be done,\u201d he said. The discussions culminated in the creation of the Gonzalo Aponte Foundation Fund at FCPR. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhen the fund was created, Fundaci\u00f3n Comunitaria had\u2014and still has\u2014the structure, scope, and experience to make the family\u2019s wishes a reality: to support scholarship recipients and nonprofit organizations,\u201d he recalls. \u201cOver the years, they have done an unwavering job managing the funds, and that gives us peace of mind,\u201d he notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Access to education <\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Access to education was one of his priorities because \u201cit is fundamental all the time. The power of philanthropy is to transform people, and for there to be social transformation, there must be education.\u201d To achieve this, they sought to support young people with economic needs, who maintained academic progress and performed community service. Among these, <strong>Xavier Nieves.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Teresita fondly remembers \u201cthe story\u201d Xavier told her, a boy facing significant financial hardship whom she describes as a \u201cgenius.\u201d The young man, originally from Luquillo, volunteered in a nursing home, where he often played dominoes with the residents. \u201cOne day he decided to take them to La Parquera, in Lajas, and put them on a boat. When they were getting off, one of the elderly men fell in the water. Imagine that!\u201d she recalls, laughing, while highlighting the selfless spirit of him and the rest of the scholarship recipients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"552\" src=\"https:\/\/fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Foto-Grupal-Beca-Gonzalo-Aponte-Editada-002-min-2-scaled-e1624310463492-1024x552.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"10155\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Foto-Grupal-Beca-Gonzalo-Aponte-Editada-002-min-2-scaled-e1624310463492.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/fcpr.org\/?attachment_id=10155\" class=\"wp-image-10155\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Foto-Grupal-Beca-Gonzalo-Aponte-Editada-002-min-2-scaled-e1624310463492-1024x552.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Foto-Grupal-Beca-Gonzalo-Aponte-Editada-002-min-2-scaled-e1624310463492-300x162.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Foto-Grupal-Beca-Gonzalo-Aponte-Editada-002-min-2-scaled-e1624310463492-768x414.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Foto-Grupal-Beca-Gonzalo-Aponte-Editada-002-min-2-scaled-e1624310463492-1536x828.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.fcpr.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Foto-Grupal-Beca-Gonzalo-Aponte-Editada-002-min-2-scaled-e1624310463492-2048x1104.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\"><em> In the background, student Xavier Nieves, behind Gonzalo Mario Aponte (gray coat), who has his wife Teresita Battle to his left and his sister, Rosemarie \u00abCuqui\u00bb Aponte, to his right.
