Northern Nevada animal rescue Res-Que is asking supporters to help bring attention to its work by nominating the organization in the 2027 Best of Reno Community’s Choice Awards. The annual program recognizes local businesses and organizations across the Reno area, with nominations open through November 30th.

 

Res-Que is seeking nominations in the Services – Non-Profit/Charity Organization category. Supporters can submit a nomination once per day during the nomination period, which runs from November 2nd through November 30th. The five nominees receiving the most submissions in each category will advance to the voting round in February.

 

The rescue encouraged its Northern Nevada supporters to return daily to nominate the organization and share the opportunity with others. For local rescues, community recognition can help introduce their work to people who may not already know about the organization or the animals it serves.

 

## How the Best of Reno Awards Work

 

The Best of Reno Community’s Choice Awards are organized around a public nomination and voting process. During the current round, participants can enter their preferred businesses and organizations in more than 160 categories. The top five nominees in each category move forward to the voting stage.

 

The voting round is scheduled for February 12th through February 26th, 2027, with participants able to vote once per day. Winners will be announced May 27th, 2027, following the awards gala.

 

The program also includes incentives for participation. People who nominate in at least 25 categories during the current round will be entered for a chance to win a $250 gift card. The same prize opportunity is available during the voting round for participants who vote in at least 25 categories.

 

## Supporting Animal Welfare Across Northern Nevada

 

Res-Que’s nomination effort is an opportunity for the community to recognize an animal rescue organization working in the region. While the awards include several pet-related business categories, including grooming, boarding, pet stores, training and veterinary clinics, the nonprofit category provides a separate place to recognize charitable organizations.
