Southport, CT, February 08, 2012 --(PR.com)-- DiversityBusiness, the nation’s’ leading multicultural business website, today announced the honorees for its “Champions of Diversity Award” for 2012. This distinguished group of individuals are recognized for their outstanding achievements in various diversity initiatives within their companies and communities.
The “Champions of Diversity Award” represent individuals who have demonstrated a commitment to solutions in diversity issues on a regional and national level. The honorees have made a significant impact on diversity issues in employment, procurement, housing and education. These “soft” sell champions have not waved a diversity flag but have quietly made a difference in the lives of people by positively impacting their lives, and improving the economic conditions for their families and communities.

The “Champions of Diversity” will be honored at a special awards ceremony at DiversityBusiness 12th Annual Multicultural Business Conference, taking place April 25 – April 27, 2012 at The Foxwoods Resort and Casino in Mashantucket, CT.
