This award honours individuals, teams, organizations, or cultural institutions in the fields of sports, arts, and culture that have leveraged their platform to promote civic engagement, democratic values, and social change. Whether through powerful storytelling, inclusive performances, creative activism, or using athletic visibility to advocate for justice and voter participation, these changemakers use their talents to challenge injustice, uplift underrepresented voices, and inspire collective action. They demonstrate that civic impact isn’t confined to politics—it’s lived and expressed in every arena of public life.
