Feedback Friday
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

There’s something especially meaningful about hearing from the first responders we work alongside.

This week’s feedback comes from the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office, recognizing one of our volunteers for being professional, helpful, and—most importantly—there for a family during a difficult moment. ❤️

That is exactly what TIP is here to do: show up, offer support, and help carry some of the weight when a family’s world has suddenly changed.

Thank you to our incredible volunteers for continuing to represent TIP of Northern Nevada with compassion and professionalism, and thank you to our first responder partners for trusting us to support the families you serve.

“Thank you for being there for the family!” — that says it all. ❤️

📊 August by the Numbers — TIP of Northern Nevada ❤️

August was another busy month of showing up for our community during some of life’s most difficult moments.

Our volunteers responded to 49 calls for service, supported 128 clients, and spent a combined 94 hours and 30 minutes actively on calls providing emotional support, practical assistance, and a compassionate presence when it was needed most.

🚨 49 Calls
❤️ 128 Clients Served
⏱️ 94 Hours, 30 Minutes on Calls
🚑 Top Partner Agency for Callouts: REMSA

A special thank you to REMSA for continuing to trust TIP of Northern Nevada to support the individuals and families you serve. We are grateful for the partnership and for every first responder who recognizes the value of having a TIP volunteer on scene.

And to our volunteers — thank you for answering the call, giving your time, and continuing to show up with compassion, patience, and heart. These numbers represent far more than statistics. They represent 128 people who did not have to face a moment of crisis alone.

🌟 TIP Volunteer of the Month: Rebecca 🌟

If you’ve ever had the privilege of knowing Rebecca, you know exactly why she is so deserving of this recognition. She is one of the kindest, gentlest, and most genuinely caring people you could ever meet—and she brings that same heart into every part of her work with TIP. ❤️

Rebecca recently joined our 100 Club, having served on more than 100 TIP calls since becoming a volunteer. That milestone alone speaks volumes about her dedication, but the impact she makes goes far beyond the number of calls.

Rebecca has an incredible ability to bring calm, peace, encouragement, and steady support into difficult moments. She creates a sense of safety for the individuals and families she serves, and she brings that same warmth and encouragement to the entire TIP family.

She is also a tireless advocate for TIP. Rebecca fundraises, promotes our mission, creates opportunities for TIP to be included, and consistently makes sure our organization has a seat at the table when and where it matters most.

Rebecca, thank you for the countless hours you give, the compassion you bring to every call, and the heart you pour into this organization. TIP of Northern Nevada is stronger because you are part of it, and we are incredibly grateful to celebrate you as our Volunteer of the Month. ❤️
