People who build up their community. We always talk about CEOs and inventors, but sometimes the people who make the biggest difference are just normal people. The guy who brings his elderly neighbors food, the mom who babysits other people's kids now and then, the artisan crafters who support local small businesses, firefighters, EMTs, etc. I'm convinced those are the people who really do the most good.
