NFL, Hispanic Heritage Foundation and Bud Light partner to launch the NFL Hispanic Heritage Leadership Awards Presented by Bud Light. Teams designate home game in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month.
The National Football League and its teams will celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 – October 15) with a series of special events. Bud Light is the presenting sponsor of the NFL’s celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month.
For the 2011 celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, the NFL, Hispanic Heritage Foundation (HHF) and Bud Light have partnered to launch the NFL Hispanic Heritage Leadership Awards Presented by Bud Light. The awards recognize the contributions of Hispanic leaders in each NFL market. Each award recipient will be recognized in-stadium at a Hispanic Heritage game in their local market. With support from Bud Light, each award recipient will select an organization of their choice that serves the local Hispanic community to receive a $2,000 donation.
In addition, 15 NFL teams – Buffalo, Carolina, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Dallas, Indianapolis, Minnesota, New Orleans, Oakland, St. Louis, San Diego, Seattle, Tampa Bay and Tennessee – will celebrate this week when they host Hispanic Heritage Month games at their stadiums to coincide with the NFL’s national celebration on Sunday Night Football and Monday Night Football.
All NFL teams will enhance the celebration with local efforts throughout the month including designated home games in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month and local community outreach.
