Mother Teresa's Legacy of Care
Mother Teresa, born in 1910 in Macedonia, founded the Missionaries of Charity in 1950 with the aim of caring for the poor and the dying on the streets of Calcutta, India. She succeeded in expanding her work to include hospitals, schools, and homes for the disabled around the world. She was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 in recognition of her humanitarian efforts. She was known for rejecting formal dinners at conferences and directing funds to the poor. She passed away on September 5, 1997, leaving behind a legacy of 610 centers and over 4,000 nuns and volunteers serving millions of those in need across 123 countries.
