Efren Peñaflorida: One more Hero for the Philippines

One more reason to be proud for being a Filipino.

Efren Peñaflorida, who started a "pushcart classroom" in the Philippines to bring education to poor children as an alternative to gang membership, has been named the 2009 CNN Hero of the Year.

Peñaflorida, who will receive $100,000 to continue his work with the Dynamic Teen Company, was selected after seven weeks of online voting at CNN.com. The CNN Hero was chosen by a blue-ribbon panel from an initial pool of more than 9,000 viewer nominations.

 

 


"Our planet is filled with heroes, young and old, rich and poor, man, woman of different colors, shapes and sizes. We are one great tapestry, Each person has a hidden hero within, you just have to look inside you and search it in your heart, and be the hero to the next one in need.

--Efren Penaflorida, CNN Hero of the Year
