The annual
I Heart Trucking® Photo Contest is a fun and positive way to enhance the image of trucking, spotlight the trailblazing women and their passion for the industry, and celebrate diversity and inclusion efforts.

Although women are still in the minority in transportation and logistics, the latest WIT Index data shows these numbers are rising. A key pillar of our mission is to encourage more women to pursue a career in trucking, and research shows that showcasing real women on the job or in the industry helps attract this demographic. Ten years ago, we created the annual I Heart Trucking® Photo Contest as a way to highlight the amazing and authentic women behind the wheel, fixing the truck, dispatching the call, making the sale, sitting in the board room, and beyond!
