Chris Tinney - Helping the Less Fortunate

Chris Tinney has been a successful stock broker, social media campaign manager, and co-founder of a nonprofit organization called Spread Peace. In addition to the name of the organization urging its supporters to do good in their community, Tinney also asks his supporters and those who are looking for ways to help in their community, “Who can I help today?” This driving question is what drove Tinney and his wife Tysha to found the nonprofit organization Spread Peace in 2008. Since then, it has been working in the Reno and Las Vegas communities, as well as several others, on ending poverty and homelessness.

Chris Tinney says that the first step to getting people to pitch in and help with this crucial issue in all urban communities throughout the United States is to raise awareness of the struggles that all homeless people deal with on a daily basis. Tinney is passionate about his work and he believes that he can substantially lower the number of homeless people who die every day on the streets of some of our largest cities in the United States. According to Chris Tinney, almost 40,000 Americans have died homeless in 2015. He believes that it is up to him and those he works with to put a dent in this number, one community at a time, until everyone has at least a chance to survive in one of the richest countries on Earth.

Chris Tinney lives in Las Vegas and works for Hotei Media in addition to running Spread Peace.
