Meet Rodrigo!
Rodrigo is a fun-loving 9-year-old with endless energy and a heart full of love. Funny, energetic, and incredibly lovable, he enjoys making people laugh and truly wants to be everyone’s friend. His favorite color is red, and he loves watching Sam & Cat and Stranger Things, cheering on soccer, and listening to all kinds of music. When it’s time to relax, Rodrigo is happiest playing Fortnite on his Xbox.
Rodrigo enjoys reading, going out to eat at his favorite restaurant, Hurricanes, and catching a movie with his family. He loves hamburgers and spending time with his dogs, who love to rumble and play together just like he does. Strong and determined, Rodrigo can walk a sort distance, though it causes him a tremendous amount of pain—yet he pushes through with the spirit of a true little soldier.
Rodrigo has Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and a medical stroller would greatly improve his comfort and mobility. With the right support, Rodrigo can conserve his energy, reduce pain, and continue enjoying time with friends and family—sharing laughs, adventures, and the joy he brings to everyone he meets.
