endeavorers

People who try

Endeavorers are people who make earnest attempts at something difficult or challenging.

The word emphasizes effort and striving rather than success: The early endeavorers in aviation faced countless failures before achieving flight.

Less common than the base verb endeavor, it appears when writers want to name those who try.
