Criciúma Faz Bem Award 2026: VOTE and define the winners in the 6 categories

The traditions, history, economy and way of being of the largest city in the south of Santa Catarina mobilize several good examples and outstanding initiatives, which deserve to be celebrated. This is the role of the Criciúma Faz Bem award, which in 2026 will count on the public's help to identify, through popular voting, who deserves recognition.

The NSC TV awards arrive in this year's edition with six categories, each with three finalists: Antoinettes, Criciumense of the Year, Culture, Sport, Social Project and School Project.

Voting started this Friday (9) and only takes place here via g1. The public can vote as many times as they want until 11:59 pm on November 12, a Thursday.

An event, on a date to be announced, will reward the most voted with the presence of finalists and guests at the NSC.
