ImageLast week at the White House, a special ceremony honored the 5,000th Point of Light. The Points of Light Program has a giant impact: the website explains that "people of all ages, races, ethnicities and faiths step up to tackle problems in their communities and around the world. Points of Light connects people to their power to make a meaningful difference by providing access to tools, resources and opportunities to volunteer. In 2011, 4.3 million volunteers and 77,052 partners in 20 countries around the globe were mobilized through Points of Light." Now is the perfect time to recognize one of our community's Points of Light, Marilee Chinnici-Zuercher. Marilee is a board member of Points of Light.
