MOTHER TERESA
Mother Teresa of Calcutta has often been described as a saint. She devoted her whole life to charity work, looking after the poor and the sick. Mother Teresa was born in 1910 in what is now Macedonia. From the age of 12, she said she knew that she wanted to dedicate her life to helping people. After her schooling and training she went to Calcutta in India where she would become famous for her good work. While teaching in a school she felt a strong desire to do more to help the sick and dying people in Calcutta. In 1952, she set up a centre for the terminally ill. She wanted these people to have the best quality care in their last days.Her work inspired many people and her organization grew and grew. Originally she had twelve women working for her, but by the year 2000, there were more than 4000 people working for the organization running schools, orphanges and homes for the sick and poor all over the world. Even people who didn’t agree with all of her views could admire all of the good that she did.In 1979 she was awarded the Nobel peace prize and when she died, aged 87, the French president Jacques Chirac, said what many people were thinking : “This evening there is less love, less compassion, less light in the world".
