Points of Light Institute

Points of Light is an international nonprofit, nonpolitical organization that mobilizes and showcases volunteer work across the United States and around the world.  It was named for a phrase in President George H.W. Bush’s inaugural address, when he said he envisioned “a thousand points of light” created by citizens helping each other.
 
I interview nominees for the organization’s Daily Point of Light Award and write stories about their work and what inspires them, after candidates have been thoroughly vetted.  I have no input into award decisions. I have also done in-depth interviews and helped to vet nominees for the prestigious L’Oreal Paris Women of Worth recognition program in both the U.S. and Canada.
