Amid all the serious issues the world has faced this year, there have also been moments of hope and humanity.
This Sunday night, CNN shines a spotlight on those moments and the people behind them during its annual CNN Heroes All-Star Tribute. We’ll also reveal the viewer’s choice award for the moment that inspired CNN’s audience the most this year.
For the past 14 years, CNN Heroes has honored everyday people committed to making the world a better place. Co-hosted by CNN’s Anderson Cooper and ABC’s Kelly Ripa, the annual CNN Heroes All-Star Tribute is usually broadcast in front of a live audience but this year, due to the coronavirus pandemic, it was pre-taped.
Celebrity presenters include actresses Angela Bassett, Millie Bobby Brown and Gal Gadot, actors Orlando Bloom and Jeffrey Wright, special guests Dr. Anthony Fauci and Chef José Andrés, and a performance by Cynthia Erivo.
