John and Maria Rodaz and family have been pillars of the Miami Arts community for decades, touching countless lives through their dedication and service. Now, they are facing an unimaginable personal crisis. Their daughter Rachel, a devoted mother to three young children suffered a sudden cardiac event the morning after Thanksgiving while visiting from her home in New Orleans. Since then, Rachel has been in a coma in the ICU. Her family has not left her side for a moment. The Rodaz family is experiencing not only emotional heartbreak but also the overwhelming burden of medical bills, missed time managing their active non-profit Area Stage, and more importantly, the challenge of supporting Rachel’s children during this uncertain time. As they focus all their energy on this unimaginable situation, the financial strain grows. Your donation will go towards Rachel’s medical bills allowing them to focus on their family's needs. The Rodaz's have dedicated themselves to serving the Miami community, and now, in their time of need, we know there are many who will want to give back. Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference. Please join us in lifting the Rodaz family up as they navigate this devastating chapter. Your kindness and generosity means the world to them.
