After conquering the modeling world as a Victoria's Secret Angel and runway regular, Kloss felt her career hit a standstill. "Instead of giving up because I was not challenged anymore," she told Vogue Australia of delving into new projects, "I actually reversed it on its head and saw all the opportunities to use this as a platform to do so many other things that I am passionate about, even if I don't have anything to do with fashion." The model turned her passion for coding into Kode with Klossy, an intensive coding boot camp and scholarship program for young women interested in science and math.

As founder and CEO of Every Mother Counts — a non-profit launched in 2010 — the supermodel continues to raise awareness of the global maternal health crisis. "After enduring a complication following the delivery of my daughter, I started to learn the global estimates of pregnancy and childbirth-related complications and deaths," Turlington told Bustle. "That was the moment I knew I had to get involved in maternal healthcare."

Talk about a triple threat! Not only has Delevingne fronted magazine covers, walked down fashion runways and scored high-profile ad campaigns, she also has beefed up her acting résumé in recent years — and that's not all. The model-turned-actress just wrote her first novel, Mirror, Mirror, slated to hit bookstores this fall.

The supermodel is no stranger to philanthropy — at 22, she launched The Naked Heart Foundation, an organization that helps special needs kids in her native Russia. And most recently, Vodianova founded the Elbi app, which quickly turns "likes" into dollars to benefit a wide array of causes.
