The Top 10 CNN Heroes of 2009 -- remarkable individuals nominated by viewers for their sacrifices and accomplishments -- were announced Thursday on the global networks of CNN.

CNN's Anderson Cooper revealed one Top 10 CNN Hero at the top of each hour on CNN, CNN.com and CNN.com Live.

The daylong event, which began at 1 p.m. ET, culminated with a special edition of "AC360," profiling this year's honorees and their causes. "Change the World, You Vote, CNN Heroes" aired at 11 p.m. ET Thursday on CNN and CNN International.

The year 2009 marks CNN's third annual global search for everyday individuals changing the world. Since February, the network has aired weekly profiles of CNN Heroes, chosen from more than 9,000 nominations submitted by viewers in 100 countries.

A panel comprised of luminaries recognized for their own dedication to public service selected this year's Top 10 CNN Heroes. The blue ribbon panel includes humanitarians such as retired four-star Gen. Colin Powell, philanthropist Wallis Annenberg and Sir Elton John.

In addition to the $25,000, each of this year's Top 10 CNN Heroes will be honored at "CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tribute," airing from the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood at 9 ET/PT on Thanksgiving night, November 26.

The global broadcast, with Cooper as the host, will culminate with the announcement of the CNN Hero of the Year, selected by the public in an online poll that began at 11 p.m. ET Thursday.

Viewers can go to CNN.com/Heroes to participate in the poll, which continues through November 19 at 6 a.m. ET. The individual receiving the most votes will receive an additional $100,000.

Saludo kami sa iyo Efren!

[browneyes8990]

So deserving. You make me very proud of being a Filipino.

[XxTaylorSwift13Xx]

Congatulation Efren...your bring inspiration to all.

[goldenredfox]

so you think He's NOT worth it???? coz he didnt say thank you to you. and You are WORTH it to being thank to because ur fingers r numb. Honestly, you dont have a Numb Fingers. U have a NUMB HEART. a CALLUS SOUL. u reckon?????????

[vigorako]

BIG5KAHUNA!!! why not try to think of something you can contribute to make some changes for the lives of misfortunate people, rather than whinning about a simple thank you directly from Efren? Do urself a favor, do some noble thing to others but do not wait anything in return...

[lepper24dudes]

GO efren!

[YYC403NOYP]

RESPONSE TO BIG5KAHUNA....Commendations are NOT DEMANDED, they are EARNED. You voted for him on your own free will and you are demanding something in return? Did you think Efren voluntarily put up this classroom on wheel with the help from volunteers, knowing that someday he'll get some awards and cash for doing this?

[scherwynne]

i hope that efren will use the cash prize to put up a non profit school...

[BadxButxSweet]

thumbs up(Y)(Y)

[BIG5KAHUNA]

Efren - Aside from you being a nominee and getting $25K, you were awarded an extra $100K . But you know what? I have yet to see you thank all the people who made all their effort (myself included) getting our fingers numb typing on our computers to make you win. After the 10 nominees were named all of you were at level. Thousands of votes came in via pinoy2pinoy egging. TFC announce it too. I believe the pinoy vote put you on top. Global Pinoy Power when used as united is a power to reckon.

i cnt held my tears after seeing this video this is just not a proud filipino moment, this is proud to be a ordinary people that can do extraordinary things that changes other peoples lives!
