“Italian culture is part of the mosaic of our daily lives, influencing our vision of art, beauty, fashion, design, architecture, cuisine, nature, language, poetry, philosophy, thought, opera, and music. Since the beginning, annual scholarships have been given to qualified students to study in italy. In addition, the organization has been a major support of florida atlantic university's italian studies program, one of the only two major programs in the florida state university system. Il circolo has contributed to a program related to italian usage in the arts at palm beach atlantic university. Donations have also been made to the highly specialized alexander w dreyfoos jr school of arts. Furthermore, il circolo contributes to the support of italian language courses at public and private schools, such as lake worth high school, pope john paul ii high school, and st. Andrews school. Involvement in the arts is epitomized by il circolo's annual granting of the "maestro anton guadagno award" (formerly called the "giuseppe verdi award") to one of the winners of the annual palm beach opera vocal competition.”
