Natalia Vodianova
Raised with a special needs sister, the Russian beauty set up 'The Naked Heart Foundation' to construct a special play park in her homeland and to help special needs kids to stay with their families rather than being placed in orphanages.
And the top spot goes to Petra Nemcová.
In 2004 Petra barely survived being caught in the great Indian Ocean Tsunami. Since then, she's dedicated herself to the non-profit 'All Hands And Hearts', which helps rebuild schools and homes in communities struck by natural disasters.
