FELLA's mission is to develop leaders while promoting the arts. In order to achieve those goal, we produce art-related events with up and coming artists (musicians, painters, etc) to raise funds for college scholarships benefiting students (in any major) with great, proven leadership and academic record who need financial assistance. The students benefit from the scholarhips, the artists have a platform to showcase their talents, and in the process FELLA is the bridge bringing all parties together to build stronger communities for all of us.

FELLA Scholarship Program - FELLA has awarded college scholarships to students from colleges in the US and Puerto Rico. All FELLA scholars demonstrated great academic records as well as involvement in their communities. FELLA's goal is to provide larger scholarships to an increasing number of students so they can finish their education and become the positive leaders we all need in our communities.

ZULEYKA GONZALEZ
Zuleyka studies Nursing at Universidad Interamericana de Puerto Rico - Aguadilla. Her guiding principle is helping others without expecting anything for she believes there's no greater satisfaction. Zuleyka finds inspiration in Gandhi's quote, "Be the change you want to see in the world." That's why she aspires to become a Registered Nurse and improve the health of others regardless of their background. Zuleyka wants to provide more metal health programs for people in Puerto Rico affected by Hurricane Maria.
