They've brought healthcare to the poor, saved animals in Suriname, rescued children in Nepal, and provided food, water, and hope to people who've had none for a very long time.

CNN's "Top Ten Heroes of 2015," have officially been announced.

The general public gets to vote for their favorite top ten nominee over the course of the next few weeks, but be warned, you'll face a tough choice before casting your ballot online.

The nominees for Hero of the Year are:

Dr. Jim Withers who has given free, quality healthcare to Pittsburg, Pennsylvania's homeless for more than 20 years.

Monique Pool, "The Sloth Lady," who has rescued and rehabilitated hundreds of sloths and other animals back into the jungles of Suriname.

Richard Joyner, a Conetoe, North Carolina pastor who started gardens to give his parishioners healthier diets in his town's "nutritional desert."
