Volunteer of the Month Spotlight | Yvette Hairston

This month, we are proud to highlight Yvette Hairston as our Volunteer of the Month, sponsored by NV Energy! Yvette’s unwavering dedication to service truly brightens our community. For her, volunteering is more than just an act of kindness—it’s a way of life.  

Inspired by the belief that even the smallest acts can create a ripple effect of positive change, Yvette finds purpose in uplifting others, providing comfort, and sharing hope with those in need. Her work with United Way of Southern Nevada is a testament to her passion for making a lasting impact and her commitment to building a stronger, more compassionate community. 

Yvette continues to volunteer with United Way because of the real, tangible difference it makes in the lives of Southern Nevadans. Witnessing families gain stability and children gain access to education fuels her motivation.  

Through UWSN’s Volunteer Connect platform, Yvette effortlessly matches her skills and passions with meaningful causes. “Knowing that I can help uplift someone in need, provide comfort, or even inspire others to act fills my heart with purpose and motivates me to continue giving back” she says.  

We are grateful to Yvette for her continued dedication to making our community a better place. To explore volunteer opportunities, visit uwsn.org/volunteer.
