We are proud to reinvest over $50,000 annually back into Manatee County—directly impacting students and families in our community.

In order to envision the future, one must first invest in the next generation. Through scholarships and cultural exchange opportunities, we are helping young leaders grow, learn, and carry our traditions forward. As we look ahead, Conquistador Square remains a long-term vision—a place where history is preserved, heritage is sustained, and community can gather for generations to come.

#BeTheOne to support scholarships, education, and opportunity—while helping shape a future rooted in our past.
