This year’s Top 10 CNN Heroes will be celebrated at tonight’s event. Each will receive a $10,000 prize. Based on your votes, one will be named the 2023 CNN Hero of the Year and receive an additional $100,000 for their cause.

Their work is inspiring and based on simple ideas to help others such as converting an off-road vehicle into a wash station for homeless veterans, providing books for kids while they wait at the barbershop and turning a passion for diving into a movement to rebuild coral reefs.
