Brian Weinstein and Jessica Pliska have helped thousands of students through their nonprofit Opportunity Network since they launched it 20 years ago in a single New York City high school.
With a board of directors that includes heavy hitters from entertainment, law, accounting, and beyond, OppNet’s primary mission is plain in its name: opening doors of opportunity for underrepresented students and getting them on a path of networking through high school to college and beyond. For their work, Weinstein and Pliska are being honored as Variety’s Philanthropists of Year.
The pair, who met as college undergrads, both burned with idealism and recognized their privilege could be leveraged for a game-changing idea. As young professionals, their idea for OppNet was simple: to level the playing field for underrepresented students through mentorship, a curriculum built to help
them achieve academic and career success and guiding support from a wide-ranging professional community.

Less than 24 hours after Joe Biden declared his Presidential campaign very much alive with a trove of Super Tuesday comeback victories, the former Vice President is celebrating tonight with Hollywood A-listers.
Leonardo DiCaprio, Sony Pictures’ Tom Rothman, Bad Robot’s Brian Weinstein, Sony-Screen Gems’ Eric Paquette and Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti were some of the guests at a fundraiser at the Beverly Hills home of philanthropist and former Paramount boss Sherry Lansing, according to a source who was there. Co-hosts included John Emerson and Kimberly Emerson, Sim Farar and Debra Farar and Cynthia Telles and Joe Waz.
As Biden’s campaign sees a big boost in new bundlers and donors with momentum swinging his way as the more moderate alternative to Bernie Sanders, the event sold out and had to be moved outside at Lansing’s pad to accommodate all the 350 or so guests. Tickets started at $1,000 per person.
