Reading this question 2 people come to mind Mary Sequol - (not sure whether the name spelt right.) She couldn't find a job as a nurse in Britain due to racism, so when the Crimean was fought she brought passage and then spent her life savings so she could get her own hospital. William Wilberforce.

Mmm... that's a toughie.
Female... I'd have to go with Audrey Hepburn, beauty, style, grace, and she helped people in 3rd world countries. Could anyone be more classy? I aspire to be like her, but still myself of course!
Male... that one's a lot harder. Maybe Teddy Roosevelt because he started the National Park system. Plus I love the saying he coined, "walk softly & carry a big stick."

Male - The guy who took a bullet when the police officer was being held at gunpoint. Luckily he lived. He restored my faith in humanity and reminded me that it is possible for someone to be in the right place at the right time.
Female - The young woman who got stabbed in the neck to save her baby. She was paralyzed from the neck down. She represents what motherhood means and was willing to give her life to save her child.
Two astounding people and I would love to know their names but sadly the media died out to make room for less important issues.

It is sad they have passed. As well strange in that they both tried to do their best while in their public positions. I feel where trying to get a message across to the world just prior to meeting their untimely fates. to answer your question,.. John F. Kennedy and Princess Dianna Of Wales.
they were defiantly here to wake and shake Humanity up towards the betterment. The World awaits another.
