“Wanted to give you a big Thank You for your assistance and help in my recent attempt at a job search."Recently I was made aware of a career opportunity as a Senior Contracts Manager for a major corporation. This corporation holds major contracts globally throughout the Department of Defense enterprise. Since I had decided to 'retire' early over a year ago, I was a bit out of date with current resume trends; and definitely rusty at interviewing, as the last time I interviewed was some time ago.I had known about the Work for Warriors program, and the team; but had never contacted them about using their services. Seeing as I was a bit out of date, I decided to reach out to them and see what they could do.Using the on-line registration at the Work for Warriors Nevada website was easy and very straight forward. Questions were asked to build a profile of what you were looking for job wise, and what assistance you thought you needed. At the end, an email was received informing me that a Employment Coordinator would be reaching out to me shortly.The next day, I received an email from Mr. Baker, and was provided links for research and a request to contact him for setting up an appointment. Setting up the appointment for the next week, I got together my information, updated my existing resume and LinkedIn profile, per some of the suggestions I received from James.Upon meeting with Mr. James Baker, and Mr. Kevin Stein at the Reno office, I was greeted by two gentlemen who were both professional and friendly in their demeanor, and were obviously very knowledge and extremely talented at what they do. During the time there, I also met and conversed with several of the other clients who stopped by to give updates. You could tell that they were happy about the outcomes, and appreciated the services that had been provided; and also that real bonds had been created. James and Kevin have a knack of threading humorous comments and anecdotes throughout a conversation to keep the mood light, and to keep people smiling. Considering the jobs they do, and how people are typically nervous about writing or talking about themselves to strangers; this is an effective tactic to help people relax.We spent a couple hours creating a new resume for me, with a different format, and during that time, we discussed interviews, job market, and how the workplace has evolved over the past few years.Afterwards, James kept in contact with me as I went thru the application and interview process, asking questions, providing guidance, encouragement, maybe even a nudge or two. Additionally, he also identified another career opportunity that looked like a good fit for me, and forwarded it to me to look over.After a couple of interviews, and an offer letter was received, James listened to my thoughts and concerns about preparing a counter-offer letter. His advice was spot on, as the response had a 22% increase in starting salary!Can't give enough thanks and kudos to the team! Their efforts to assist and help fellow Veterans, Active Duty, National Guard, and their families is more than above the bar - they twist it, reshape it, and set-it up as high as they can go - and then proceed to jump over it - to prove that not only do they enjoy helping you, but they will go the extra mile to help you in achieving that employment or career goal that you have in mind."Thank you for all that you've done, do, and whatever you may do in helping others like me in the future.Regards,Curt Schermerhorn”

“I was heading to the consignment store on Saturday afternoon and just in front of the shoe store were two Girl Scouts selling cookies. Well of course, I had to stop. I was only going to buy 1 box but Elise from Troop #1473 had some pretty fantastic sales skills. Haven helped give me my cookies while Elise was up selling me...hahaI bought the new brownie and Carmel cookies which were fabulous as well as my favorite Carmel delights...I guess I love Carmel. See you again young entrepreneurs. Thanks to the Mom's Mary & Tanya too.I hope you all sell so many boxes..there was quite a line yesterday. I have already shared one box. I only have one box left.

“Nice clean store with large selection of clothing. The home goods section is a bit lacking and overall the amount of merch is less than in the past. Overall prices are decent, especially if you stick to the sale tagged items. Puzzles are one of my favorites, but they over price them. Money goes to a good cause though, so you can complain too much. If you do find something way over priced (higher than normal retail), the staff cannot do anything about it.”

“Big Brothers Big Sisters is such an amazing organization in our community! We’ve had the opportunity to work with their team and see firsthand how much they genuinely care about the kids and families they serve. I also really appreciate the heart behind their leadership and the passion they have for making a difference. Mentorship can have such a huge impact on a child’s life, and I love knowing we have an organization right here in our community that is committed to creating those relationships. We are so grateful to work with their team and proud to support the incredible work they are doing!”

“What a great program that Renown is offering at no charge for DNA sequencing. We were met off the elevator by Sean and he was wonderful and so friendly helping with the entire steps! Better hurry, it's only available for a short time. Results 6-10 weeks. Can't wait for results. It was such an easy process and ohhh so helpful. They have a few locations so if you're interested go to healthynv.org.”

“The staff and volunteers that keep this place running are so friendly and helpful. The wait time for the foodbank is relatively short and they make sure to send you away with a good amount of food. I have not had the opportunity to eat at the soup kitchen but I have been told by a few people that you get a meal that tastes good and definitely fills you up. Thank you to all those great folks that keep this place running.”

“Absolutely love this non profit organization that creates an easy path to get healthcare at affordable prices. The director and care coordinators help navigate the healthcare system and make sure you aren’t being overcharged when those mystery bills roll in that almost every medical place sends. Thank you Access to Healthcare!”

“I was a guest at the Reno Elks Lodge Friday, 23 September 2022, so this review is only for that day. The Reno Elks Lodge hosted the annual local Veterans Stand Down which is an annual outside event going on nationwide every September. Veterans Stand Downs are typically one- to three-day outside events during which VA (US Department of Veterans Affairs) staff, community groups, state Veterans divisions, and volunteers provide free food, water, clothing, footwear, toiletries, health screenings, bedding, Veterans pins, Veterans stickers, hats, gloves, scarves, plants, P-38 can openers, many various items for Veterans' pets, hand warmers, sun glasses, Veterans key chains, sea bags aka barrack bags as well as wheeled suitcases to homeless and at-risk Veterans and any Veteran and Veteran's family who wants to attend. In addition, Veterans also receive referrals for VA enrollment, health care, housing solutions, employment, substance use treatment, mental health counseling, transportation, computers, benefits, telehealth, mst counseling, quitting smoking, nutrition and weight management, exercise, and other essential services. So, there were a lot of VA departments, community groups, the state Veterans division, volunteers, and Veterans at this Washoe County, Nevada Veterans Stand Down.The Reno Elks Lodge did an adequate job of organizing and operating this large event. Which is saying a lot as this event required a lot of coordination with a lot of VA departments, community groups, state Veterans division, and volunteers. The event was set up in the very large parking lot. The Reno Elks Lodge brought in and always kept clean Sani-Huts to serve the very large crowd. They placed plenty of garbage cans throughout this very large and very spread out event. They had a PA system setup with a man who went to each participating VA department, community group and state Veterans division and had them each briefly say what they do.The local Navy JROTC performed the opening American Flag ceremony, and did it well, and with reverent dignity. We Veterans responded with equal reverent dignity.Inside the Lodge, VA medical staff gave me this year's flu shot. I found the Lodge itself to be beautiful, clean and well-maintained.elks.org/lodges/home.cfm… elks.org/programs/news.c… washoeschools.net/domain…The Katie Grace Foundation yelp.com/biz/katie-grace… was there. Although they had previously boasted in their advertising "Katie Grace Foundation will be there to offer a hot meal." they had NO hot meal offered there.”

“Criminals with mental health and substance abuse issues deserve a chance to receive help too and Restart is pretty good at removing those who abuse the system. They have rehabilitated more "criminals" who were willing to receive treatment than any other subsidized programs. If you are not informed please hold your judgements to yourself. Your ignorance for a criminal like me who received help is insulting.”

“My son started in the first tee program over a month ago at the sierra sage golf course. The program is 8 weeks long for two hours one day a week. They offer different times depending on your child's age and location you choose to take lessons at. They offer lessons at all the local golf courses in town. The coaches over at Sierra Sage have been great! They are very friendly and patient. My son has been enjoying his experience there so far.First tee hosted a garage sale last weekend and we purchased some affordable starter club sets for my son and myself. They had a lot of really put together sets, you were also able to purchase clubs and bags individually. The money spent went to a charity. I'm very happy I tried first tees and would recommend it to any parent thinking about golf lessons for their children.”
