25 Years of Character… It Starts With Me
The 2025 Heroes of Character, “25 Years of Character” Celebration, will be held on April 8, 2025, at the Delta Marriott Hotel in Sharonville, Ohio. Hosted by the Character Council of Greater Cincinnati, in collaboration with Hamilton’s City of Character Coalition, this celebration will recognize individuals of all ages within the Tri-state area whom their peers have nominated as upstanding citizens and people of character who make a difference in this world. These “Heroes” all have their unique story, whether bouncing back from a setback to accomplish the amazing, doing the right thing no matter the cost or who is watching, or fighting injustice for those unable to fight for themselves. They set examples of care and compassion. They are the change within their respective communities.
In addition, we will be celebrating 25 years of serving the community with character-based inspiration.
Nominators will be informed ahead of the general public if their nominee is chosen as a Hero. Nominators can set up auxiliary honorary events for their nominees (for example, at a school assembly or all-staff meeting) with a Character Council representative. This does not replace attendance at the event. Nominators and Finalists receive deeply discounted admission to the Heroes of Character Celebration. Heroes and Student Heroes of Character receive complimentary admission and a select number of complimentary admissions.
