Xquisite held its fourth annual Golf Tournament on Oct. 7 at the beautiful Toiyabe Golf Course. It was a perfect day to golf with a purpose to bring awareness and support in the fight against sex trafficking. We were honored to have nine first responder teams join us representing Carson City Sheriff’s Office, Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, East Fork Fire Protection District, Juvenile Probation Services of Carson City, Nevada State Police and Reno Police Department. We truly appreciate our first responders and how they keep our communities safe and their partnership with Xquisite.

We also had some amazing and generous sponsors this year. Thank you to L3 Construction, Village Pharmacy, Dutch Bros., United Rentals, JMD Ranches, Smoke Composites, Doug and Shirley Roberts, Millennium Med Spa and Suites, Trophy Peak Fire Protection, Dirt Tricks Race Products, Church on the Rock, Double J Auto, Swanson’s Special Forces, and Douglas Disposal. We also had more than 44 businesses that generously contributed to our raffles, which added to the success of the day.

We truly are better together and grateful for everyone who believes, like we do, that everyone has value and potential. We believe that no matter what has occurred in the past, together we cultivate facets with trauma informed care to expose the brilliance in who they are becoming. This is best accomplished by understanding the needs of a survivor, doing the best to meet those needs, and providing a sense of community and acceptance which can change the trajectory of a survivor’s life. That is Xquisite’s passion and what drives every trauma informed care decision we make. We again extend our thanks to everyone who made Xquisite’s 2024 golf tournament successful, one Diamond survivor and facet at a time.
