Check out this video of Jennifer receiving the award.
Jennifer Staple was awarded a Golden BRICK Award for her commitment to youth service as Founder, President and CEO of Unite For Sight. The Golden BRICK Award provides $25,000 to Unite For Sight, and the award will be used to eliminate preventable blindness in the organization's partner communities in Ghana and India. The award was announced on April 10th, on a televised broadcast in New York City that aired on The CW network. The 1-hour show was hosted by Leann Rimes, performances by Dashboard Confessional and Mandy Moore, and award presentations by Susan Sarandon, Jamie Lynn Sigler, Petra Nemcova, Wyclef, Bryan Greenberg, among others.
Jennifer and Unite for Sight were selected for a Brick Award in January, and the Golden BRICK was awarded based on five weeks of online voting on Yahoo from March 1 through April 9th. The BRICK Award has been dubbed by CNN as the "Oscars of Youth Service."
Unite For Sight is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that empowers communities worldwide to improve eye health and eliminate preventable blindness. Jennifer founded the organization at Yale University in September 2000, and the organization has thus far provided eye care to more than 400,000 people worldwide.
