Unless a faith believes some positive value in having people starve, I think that the Frenchman Nicolas Appert, the inventor of canning of foods as a means of preserving food might be considered an asset to humanity.
I would consider any of the medical advances that have benefited humanity, but I understand that there are faiths that are against medical interventions.

Ghandi.
By the way I am an atheist with respect to the Bible, and agnostic with respect to whether there is a superanatural being that created this universe. Ghandi was no doubt a deeply religious man, but he lived an exemplary life teaching compassion and nonviolence and justice. We need more people like him.
Honorable mention: Martin Luther King Jr.

This one's faith has neither scripture nor enterprise, no temples, cathedrals or masjids, no formalized prayers or rituals, no priesthood, makes no judgments and no condemnations. the only guideline is to coach loving kindness, compassion and worrying in the direction of all that exist alongside with one's self, to do no harm to any and to stay in cohesion with the skill that enlivens, fills and lovingly creates all it is and exist. If this one is so blessed as to have yet another baby to look after, he will call her or him after the season wherein she or he arrives and, as long as this one is so allowed, will rejoice that season each 12 months with super exhilaration. If this one had to offer a acceptance to his "faith" it would be "kindness". This one clearly hopes and prays that one and all will connect interior the practice of this faith. namaste. upload: You mentioned that God might call each by using his or her call from the scriptures? this might look to recommend that the only/typical will exclude some however the only/typical excludes no person or no subject. the style of suggestion or dogmatic place is likewise no longer discovered interior the Torah, Tenakh, Gospels, injels, the Holy Qur'an, the Veda, the Edda Elda, the Pali Canon nor the different scripture this one is familar with. might this one respectuflly ask as to which "scripture" you're relating? thank you. Wont the only/typical recognize each without pick for a acceptance? Wont each recognize the only/typical while they return to the comparable? Why might such labels be needed for the All understanding?

Well "All faiths" is a pretty major category that would include satanists, cultists, and others who probably have very different ideas that you. So I think what you mean is "all major religions".
But still I don't think there will be an agreement on this.

Jesus. Most people of faith accept Him as a righteous person that tried to correct social and moral wrongs.
