Brian Lippey brings more than 20 years of global capital markets experience to the Connecticut-based Caledonia Partners. In his spare time, Brian Lippey provides support to initiatives benefitting veterans such as MusiCorps, a nonprofit music rehabilitation program for veterans injured in Afghanistan and Iraq. MusiCorps has received numerous honors for its work in the adaptive music field and was selected for a Daily Point of Light Award in 2016.
Established by President George H.W. Bush in 1993, the Daily Point of Light Award and its parent organization, the Points of Light Foundation, were created to honor the volunteer community and further President Bush’s agenda for addressing America’s social problems through community service. The Corporation for National and Community Service assisted in reinstating the award 1998 with the mission of honoring individuals and groups that actively work toward change in their communities.
Points of Light has presented the Daily Point of Light Award to more than 5,000 recipients since its formation. Eligible recipients include any individual or group that works toward the betterment of society and underprivileged peoples without the intention of obtaining rewards in return. The organization accepts nominations for potential recipients, although nominees may not consist of board members, staff, or committee personnel with Points of Light or the Corporation for National and Community Service.
