"I HEART Trucking" Photo Contest
#SteeringTowardDiversity
Mark your calendars and get out your cameras! The fifth annual “I HEART Trucking” photo contest will take place June 17-30, 2019. This year’s theme is centered around the Women In Trucking (WIT) social media hashtag #SteeringTowardDiversity. However, it is more than a hashtag. With the driver shortage at an all-time high, the industry is being called to diversify the talent pool and reach across gender, ethnic, and age demographics. Therefore, #SteeringTowardDiversity is a message that trucking is for everyone and encourages companies to advance and celebrate diversity efforts within their workforce.
How It Works:
Participants can submit their photos through the WIT website June 17-30. From there, WIT members and those interested will vote online to determine the People's Choice Winner. A panel of judges will choose their favorite to be named Judges' Choice. The winners will be recognized at an "I HEART Trucking" reception at the WIT Accelerate! Conference Sept. 30-Oct. 2, 2019 in Dallas, Texas. They also will receive a plaque, and will be featured in a press release and the Women In Trucking Association's Redefining the Road magazine.
