WHO WE ARE:

The Hispanic Choice Awards is a production of the Hispanic Yellow Pages; publishers of Hispanic directories serving Philadelphia and South Jersey.

Begun in 2004 as a promotional campaign for the directories, the awards event soon grew to obtain a personality and image all to its own.

The producers of the event developed an awards show concept that objectively would provide the Latino communities of the greater Philadelphia area an opportunity to voice their own choices and opinions for individuals and organizations/businesses who are deserving of recognition based on the positive impact they are making in their communities and in the region.

ABOUT THE EVENT:

The Hispanic Choice Awards honors and celebrates Philadelphia’s FAVORITE Hispanic people, organizations and businesses as chosen by its community in a variety of categories. This event promotes professional, personal and cultural achievements among Latinos in the greater Philadelphia area.
