This wallet was inspired by
founder,
.
It embodies the memory of a man who dedicated his life to creating bridges for those who needed them most.
Taylor (Co-Founder): "
I never had the chance to meet
Juan
Carlos
Garcia, who passed right before I started teaching at the Macchi School.
Darren, a buddy of mine who spent nine years at the school, would tell me some of his best memories came from playing chess with
Mr.
Garcia."
"He was near impossible to beat,"
Darren admits. "It was like he knew how he was going to win the game before he moved his first pond," he remembers.
The
Jesuit phrase, "A Man for Others," comes to mind when I
think of
Juan
Carlos and
in his life. He had a vision to help those from his country who were capable but handcuffed to poverty because of the country's political instability and lack of infrastructure.
He believed in people, most times more than they believed in themselves.
His philanthropic efforts include the establishment if the
Macchi
School, a 7-12 school for gifted students in
Paraguay.
Five students have graduated from American universities, while the rest have received degrees from universities in Paraguay, Argentina, and Brazil.
