Champions of Diversity

Thank you for your support of the 2022 Champions of Diversity Awards

The 2022 Champions of Diversity Awards took place on Friday, November 18, 2022, at 8:30 am in the beautiful Ybor City Campus Ybor Room.

The special guest speaker was the President and CEO of Visit Tampa Bay Santiago Corrada. Members of the President's cabinet, the diversity council, Suncoast Credit Union, Tampa General Hospital, members of the HCC Community, and nominees were among the attendees.

The Awards recognized outstanding administrators, faculty, staff, and student organizations from across the HCC Community, as well as a corporate partner as an unsung hero who has made exceptional efforts and contributions in the area of equity and diversity.

Nominations were solicited, finalists were selected by the Champions of Diversity Selection committee, and the winners were announced. The attendees enjoyed an exceptional breakfast by a local woman and minority-owned business, light entertainment, and everyone walked away with a special gift from the Diversity, Equity, and Special Programs department. The 2022 Champions of Diversity Awards was sponsored by Suncoast Credit Union.

We thank the community for their continued support and look forward to the 2023 Champions of Diversity Awards.
