Welcome to our Foundation:
The JRG Foundation was created in memory of Jorge Rolando "Roly" Gutierrez to provide
scholarships to
Rio Grande Valley high school students seeking a higher
education. Roly was lost in a tragic boating accident
in 2005. Roly loved
coaching and was very passionate about teaching and gearing his students
towards a
higher education. Though this has indeed been a very sad and trying
time for those of us who loved him and
knew him, we would like to carry on his
legacy and honor him by providing financial assistance to Rio Grande Valley
high-school athletes seeking higher education.
In our four year
history we have given out almost $30,000 in scholarships to 25 different
applicants throughout
the Rio Grande Valley.
