about
Welcome to JGM Innovation, a compassionate 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that originated in the heart of St. John’s University. We are proud to be a part of a journey that began over a decade ago when our founder, Waldo Guevara, a member of the Alpha Gamma Chapter of Phi Iota Alpha Fraternity, Inc., initiated support for the Jorge Guevara Mellado School in Santa Eulalia, Peru.
At JGM Innovation, we're not just about innovation but about impact. Our commitment to empowering the next generation through education is steadfast and global. While our journey began in Peru, it certainly does not end there. We are proud of our work with the Jorge Guevara Mellado School in Santa Eulalia, where we've made significant strides in enhancing students' educational journey.
Since its inception in 2008, the JGM Innovation team has been committed to positively impacting children's lives by equipping them with the tools they need to succeed. With the help of friends, family, fraternity brothers, and generous donors like you, we've fundraised to construct the elementary school, scholastic materials, games, scholarships, lunches, and much more.
Rest assured, every dollar raised will directly help the school. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization incorporated in NY, your donation is tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Join us in making a difference and be a catalyst for positive change in the lives of children. Every contribution, regardless of size, brings us closer to our goal. Your support will create a lasting impact on the future of these students and their community.
​
Thank you for being a vital part of our mission. Together, we can provide many children with the tools for a brighter future. Let's empower dreams and transform lives!
