‘Tis the season for year-end wrap-ups, and the most exciting that we have around here is our 10th (!) annual Most Inspiring Person of the Year award, or MIPY, as we call it for short (and yes, we do pronounce it MIH-pee).

This year’s cadre of nominees is really special, from Michael J. Fox for being the paragon of a graceful fighter against Parkinson’s Disease to Capt. Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger for bringing that flight safely down into the Hudson, to Jill and Kevin for using the feel-good mojo from their sensational YouTube wedding dance as a force for charitable good.

We invite you to click through and be inspired–and more importantly, vote for your favorite! 

You can vote once every day until December 12, at which point the Beliefnet editors will meet to choose the winner from among the 3 candidates with the most votes.  Wish we could invite you to that meeting, it’s big, inspiring fun!
