ABOUT THE FOUNDERS
Ed Menefee and Edgar Sagche Fuentes,
Friends & Co-Founders
The story of Sky Villas Resort is a story about two friends, Ed and Edgar, and Edgar's longing to return to and to support his wife Carolina and their three daughters in Guatemala.
Ed and Edgar have been friends since Ed first came to Guatemala from Alabama more than 15 years ago. They have worked together on ventures before including an Airbnb named Casa Sky in 2015-2016 in Antigua, Guatemala.
On July 4, 2023 Edgar left Guatemala for the U.S. in order to provide a future for his wife and their three daughters. He risked his life to make it to California and has been working hard, often as a day laborer at multiple jobs ranging from construction to painting to gardening, but he has also experienced setbacks including occasional unemployment and even wage theft. He hopes it will all be worth the sacrifice, but he is struggling to get ahead, and his daughters are growing up quicker with every passing year.
With your support of the Indiegogo fundraising campaign, Ed would like to help bring his friend and business partner Edgar home to his family so that together they can work together again and bring to life Sky Villas Resort.
We thank you for your support and look forward to seeing you soon at Sky Villas Resort.
