The Daily Point of Light Awards are given to individuals who find innovative ways to meet community needs, efforts which often lead to long-term solutions and impact social problems in their local communities.
Criteria utilized in judging nominations include:
Community needs and solution—Activity must meet a community need or concern and serve those who are disconnected from the larger community. Is there a long-term solution or does it give the recipient the tools they need to achieve a solution on their own?
Connection building—Hands-on service that results in building connections between the community and those who may be isolated from it.
Ongoing involvement—To be eligible, an activity should be at least six months or longer in duration.
Impact—Demonstrated impact from the activity.
Innovation—Activity should reflect innovative or unique approaches to solving serious social problems.
