I have found my home at Spread the Word Las Vegas. I love volunteering and have served with nonprofits throughout the city, but I am so grateful I finally discovered this organization. Their mission of putting books into the hands of children is truly transformative. As an author, it brings me so much joy to know a resource like this exists for our community.
What stood out to me most was not only the mission, but the people behind it. Every interaction reflected kindness, professionalism, integrity, and genuine humanity.
Thank you to Abby, the Volunteer Manager, for making the scheduling process effortless. Her communication, follow through, and leadership made me feel welcomed before I ever arrived.
Thank you to Elisha, the Reception Intern, for your professionalism and excellent communication. Every question I had was answered with respect and clarity. What impressed me most was your integrity. When you did not know an answer, you did not pretend to. You checked with Abby and called me back with the correct information. That level of honesty and follow through is rare and deserves to be recognized.
Thank you to Alex, the Volunteer Coordinator, for creating such a welcoming volunteer experience. Your leadership and organization made the day run smoothly, and it was clear that you truly value every volunteer who walks through your doors.
Finally, I want to give special recognition to Robert, the Book Nook Coordinator. As a single mother carrying my daughter, I never had to ask for help. Robert immediately stepped in and carried my books to my car without hesitation. That simple act of kindness spoke volumes about his character. It reminded me that true service is often found in the smallest moments. Robert, your mother truly raised you well. Your compassion and humanity will stay with me.
It is rare to find an organization where every person you encounter genuinely cares. From the first phone call to my first day volunteering, every member of the team reflected the heart of Spread the Word's mission.
If you are looking for a place to make a real difference, look no further. Become a Book Buddy and help inspire the next generation of readers. Spread the Word has built more than a nonprofit. They have built a culture of service, integrity, and compassion. I am honored to have found my home here, and I look forward to volunteering for many years to come. read more
