You know Miss Marina as a performing artist, a stage producer, and a kind teacher of classical ballet. While some people might have noticed her limp in recent years, she has kept much of her pain and suffering in silence. After more than 50 years of dancing classical ballet, Marina desperately needs a new hip.

The orthopedic surgeon declared Marina's case an urgent one and has recommended that she accept an emergency surgery slot in early July 2026. Relief is on the horizon for Marina, but she cannot get it without your help.

Marina learned that the co-pays for this surgery and the preparatory appointments would be nearly $ 6,000, despite a newly obtained health insurance policy. This cost is more than she and her family of performing artists can bear alone.

Will you pitch in to help Marina get a new hip?
