RobLive Podcast: Rodney Rodriguez, From Skater to Non-Profit Founder Who Gifts Boards

Join RobLive in this heartfelt episode as he sits down with Rodney Rodriguez, a passionate skater and founder of a non-profit in California's Central Valley. Rodney's organization provides skateboards to underprivileged youth, sourced from used boards painted by inmates from prisons like Corcoran. These boards are auctioned, with proceeds funding more skateboards assembled by Rodney for Fresno's needy youth. Having given away 4000 skateboards, Rodney's journey from Calwa, a lower-income community, to becoming an advocate for change through skating is truly inspiring. After watching his longtime friend and skatepark supervisor Maria Castro salvage parts, he was inspired to create these boards.
