Need a pick me up, or maybe a reminder that there are still good people in this world?

Then check out Hillsborough County’s new social media campaign #HumansOfHillsborough. It highlights people in the community who are making a difference.

The campaign is part of a new initiative to boost the county’s social media presence to connect more with the community. The county’s social media team selects both people who work for the county, and people they meet out and about, like Joel Davis.

Davis owns Commune & Co., the county’s first mobile coffee shop. You can find him during the week at Lykes Gaslight Park in downtown Tampa and Gaspar’s Grotto in Ybor City. Davis serves the coffee from a tricycle, but that wasn't the only thing about him that caught the county’s eye.

“We came across each other in the park, and they asked if I would be willing to be a part of the campaign. One of my favorite parts about my business is the opportunity to meet new people and connect,” Davis said.

It’s people like Davis who county spokesperson Jennifer Rothenberg says make Hillsborough such a great place to be, which is why they started showcasing them.

“We’re inspired by the people we meet, with the work that we do every day throughout the county," she said. "They have great passion and dedication, and we feel lucky to share their story with the rest of the community."

Rothenberg said it’s that passion and dedication that made Davis a prime candidate for Humans of Hillsborough, as he shares his love for his hometown one cup at a time.

“It’s been really cool to connect and build a community and be out on the streets, and hanging out in parks and in front of businesses and really connecting with more people,” said Davis.

County officials say they got the idea from a photographer in New York who launched the “Humans of New York” series in 2010. That series has proven to be a huge success. He now has over 13 million followers on Facebook.

If you know someone who should be the next #HumansOfHillsborough, you can contact the county through any of their social media pages.
