Team Members in the News


National Donate Life Month




On March 13, 2026, we suffered a tremendous and heartbreaking loss. We received the news of the passing of our highly motivated leader and team manager, Mark Rodriguez, who was gifted 15 bonus years with a double lung transplant. He dedicated his time to making an impact and inspiring others in our community.
Team NM was his dream, and one of his final acts was forming this team of incredible advocates, whom he had big plans for. As a team, we are committed to carrying on his legacy and honoring his wishes for Team NM to THRIVE! We love you, Mark! We are warriors, and Team NM is your legacy.
