Chris Tinney - Co-Founder of Spread Peace

Chris Tinney is the co-founder of Spread Peace, a nonprofit dedicated to ending homelessness and poverty in the United States with his wife Tysha. The couple started the organization after traveling the country in 2008 to work with local nonprofits to help raise awareness of the various challenges and plights that homeless and poor people face every day in American society, one community at a time. They recorded their journey and posted the videos on YouTube. These videos include interviews with community leaders and those trying they helped along the way.

Although Spread Peace has traditionally been involved in the homeless community and homeless issues, Chris Tinney has helped steer the organization into helping other campaigns and nonprofits with other issues as well. As the organization has grown over the years, it has taken on more causes and campaigns. Tinney is grateful for the community support and the hard work and dedication by all of his volunteers and staff members working in the field every day to solve real problems for those less fortunate than them. Part of their goal is to provide actionable information and opportunities for people to take action in their communities every day to fight for their causes. Chris Tinney fosters inspiration and hope for all he comes across.

Chris Tinney lives and works in Las Vegas, Nevada where he took one of his Spread Peace ministries after a few years in Reno. Today, his work with Hotei Media as the Managing Director aids his crusade to raise awareness and help those in need in his community and beyond.
