2012 Points of Light Tribute Awards
Building on the extraordinary momentum created by March 2011's NBC-televised Tribute honoring President and Mrs. George H. W. Bush at the Kennedy Center, the 2012 Points of Light Tribute Awards launched an annual celebration that will pay homage to one of the President’s greatest legacies, Points of Light, and his belief that “any definition of a successful life must include serving others.”
