I’ve been holding on to this news for over a month, and now that the eUpdate has been sent out by RESOLVE, I can finally spill the beans…
RESOLVE has awarded me Best Viral Video for their annual Night of Hope Awards! I am floored, honored, and truly humbled. RESOLVE described the award in their email blast today:
RESOLVE is proud to announce the inaugural Team RESOLVE Choice Award for Best Viral Video. A viral video by definition is a video that becomes popular by sharing it via the internet. This year’s winner not only created a popular video, but created a video that captured the essence of the “What IF?” project launched during National Infertility Awareness Week®. Congratulations Keiko Zoll and those involved with the video “What IF? A portrait of infertility.”
Congrats also to the other two Team RESOLVE Choice Award winners: the Best Book Award went to Pamela Mahoney Tsigdinos, author of Silent Sorority and the Best Blog Award to Julie Robichaux of A Little Pregnant!
The Night of Hope Awards will take place on Tuesday, September 28th at Gaustavino’s in New York City. Larry and I are looking forward to making a long weekend out of it. NOH looks like it’s going to be a fabulous evening of celebration, and I can’t wait to finally meet some folks in person whom with I’ve only ever corresponded through blogs or emails. I’ve been going nuts sitting on this news for so long, but the cat’s outta the bag now!
But more importantly…
This video could only go viral because of you.
To everyone who’s ever clicked play; to everyone who posted it on their blog, or Twitter, or Facebook, or wherever; to everyone who said to someone else, “Hey, you gotta watch this” and showed them my video – thank you all so much.
Awesome, Keiko! Way to go!
Huzzah!!!!
Huge Congrats Keiko!
Congrats!! That is so amazing! You truly deserve this and so much more. Thank you for giving a voice to all those women who are struggling through this journey. You are my HERO!!!!
Congratulations! It was absolutely well-deserved.
congratulations…
it was an amazing video and one that I am so glad was shared with some many people…may it educate for a long time.
SO DESERVED!! CONGRATS!
You totally deserve that honor. I posted in on Facebook after sending it to a friend who posted it first (after I was too afraid to show it first). I also sent it to my psychologist and she loved it and I hope she shares it with all her clients that are going though this awful disease. I even got a male friend to admit that he was so emotional over it and was so glad he saw it. They have cats.
