Points of light conference 2024

Honored to receive the Points of Light (POL) Transformational Scholarship Award as a Daily Point of Light Awardee, supported by UPS, sponsoring all the expenses and logistics of the Points of Light 2024 Conference in Houston (June 11-June 14, 2024). I was so happy to be able to express my gratitude to Nicole Clifton, President @UPS Foundation, without the UPS sponsorship, I could not have attended the conference. It was my immense honor to meet Jennifer Sirangelo, CEO, of the Points of Light, I was filled with gratitude for her kindest gestures. The conference concluded by honoring the legacy of late President George H.W. Bush, who founded Points of Light. Family members Neil Bush, George P. Bush, and Pierce Bush were joined by former Chief of Staff to President Bush, Jean Becker, to highlight Late George H.W. Bush’s vision of a society characterized by compassion, volunteerism, and civic engagement. We were delighted to meet Sully H.W. Bush, the former President’s service dog, who made a special appearance.

I am extremely thankful to the POL organizers Brenda Solis, Isaac Walker, Dae’Keria Stewart, Jenn Labonte, Lauren Reynolds, for their encouragement towards the POL awardees and immensely grateful to Brenda and Isaac, for their constant support and hospitality at the event.

It was my immense pleasure to meet the other Daily POL awardees attending the conference: Daniel Craig, Floyd Hammer, Kathy Hamilton, Vilmarie Ocasio Espada, Martina Taylor, Suhan Asaigoli, Claire Chi, Laine Powell, and Carol Valentino-Barry.

I sincerely want to thank Dawn White, an amazing person, with the kindest heart, who took me out for lunch on 12th June.

Will cherish the beautiful times spent at the conference with all the beautiful souls, till we meet again!

Grateful,

Dr Lopamudra Das Roy (Founder-President), Breast Cancer Hub
