Gina Bos, missing since October 17, 2000

Welcome to the GINA For Missing persons FOUNDation.

GINA's mission is to educate the public by utilizing entertainment to create awareness and media attention for missing persons world-wide, and to offer a source of information to help people whose family members become missing. By opening their hearts and doors, those in the music industry and the sponsors who participate are promoting an ongoing effort of raising awareness. GINA was created in honor of musician Gina Bos, who disappeared from Lincoln, Nebraska on October 17, 2000 after a performance. Her case remains unsolved.

In October 2024, the GINA FOUNDation sponsored the First Annual Nebraska Missing Persons Day. The Second Annual Nebraska Missing Persons Day will be held in Lincoln, Nebraska on October 17, 2025 at the State Capitol.

The Annual Squeaky Wheel® Tour - For over 20 years, GINA has produced and presented the Squeaky Wheel® Tour, a world-wide event consisting of talented musicians performing shows and profiling missing persons in their area. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 SWT® was held as a special one-day online event through Social Media on October 17, 2020. The Tour also commemorated The GINA FOUNDation's 20th year of searching for the missing.
