Carson Tahoe Employee Donors: August Spotlight

As we celebrate National Wellness Month, we’re reminded that wellness isn’t just about physical health—it’s also about fostering a sense of purpose, connection, and giving back. At Carson Tahoe, our employees demonstrate this spirit of wellness through their generosity, contributing to the Carson Tahoe Foundation to support patients and staff alike.

This month, we’re proud to highlight two inspiring Employee Donors, Michelle Joy and Karessa Moreno, whose contributions reflect their belief in the power of community and their dedication to making a difference.

Michelle Joy

President & CEO

Michelle has been an Employee Donor since 2015, directing her contributions to the Area of Greatest Need, where they can make the most significant impact. Her leadership and commitment to Carson Tahoe’s mission are reflected in her giving. Michelle explains:

“I give because I believe in our amazing staff, our mission, and the difference we make every day at Carson Tahoe. Every gift is a way to support our patients, honor our staff, and help ensure a healthier future for our community.”

Michelle’s generosity underscores her dedication to the wellness of both our team and the community, helping to ensure a brighter, healthier future for all.

Karessa Moreno

Lead Clinical Receptionist, Carson Tahoe Cardiology

Karessa became an Employee Donor in 2024, channeling her contributions to the Area of Greatest Need to support critical initiatives. Her perspective on giving reflects her belief in the power of collective impact. She shares:

“My reason for giving is this: even though I may not give a high dollar amount, I feel like my donation can help fund something for the greater picture.”

Karessa’s thoughtful contributions remind us that every gift, no matter the size, plays a vital role in creating a stronger, healthier community.

Supporting Wellness Through Generosity

Michelle and Karessa’s stories inspire us to think about wellness not just as an individual pursuit but as a collective effort. Their generosity embodies the heart of Carson Tahoe, where every contribution helps build a foundation of hope, healing, and wellness for those we serve.

As we celebrate National Wellness Month, we’re reminded that wellness begins with acts of kindness and a shared commitment to making a difference. To Michelle and Karessa—thank you for being champions of our mission and for helping to ensure a healthier tomorrow!
