Berkeley College and its community celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month at the New York City FC Noche Latina match at Yankee Stadium.
Among faculty, staff and other partners celebrated the heritage and contributions of Latin Americans.
A pre-match spotlight featured a full stadium takeover of the Jumbotron and in-stadium media, showcasing the Berkeley College “¿Cuál es tu Gol?” campaign – a message empowering match attendees to pursue their goals through education and community.
The Club also welcomed two of the College’s Corporate Learning Partners, including iHeartMedia New York, as well as Rennert International, the College’s affiliate international language school. Rennert provides New York City FC’s First Team players with ESL courses, language translation, and interpretation services.
Berkeley College serves as the Official Higher Education Partner Partner of NYCFC, leading to collaborating on education and career development, including on match days and at official New York City FC events.
Berkeley College Marketing Director Panagiota Babadelis explained the benefits of this specific partnership.
“This is the epitome of what cross-collaborative partnership building looks like – the power of storytelling through diverse communication methodologies, united under a shared vision for culture, creativity, and education,” she said.
“We value these opportunities to strengthen our partnership with New York City FC as we continue advancing our commitment to creating equitable pathways in higher education, mentorship, and career development. The Noche Latina match was an incredible opportunity to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month while providing a memorable experience para nuestra comunidad.”
