A humanitarian, Mother Teresa dedicated her life towards helping the sick, poor, orphaned and helpless. She founded the Missionaries of Charity in Calcutta in 1950. Today it is a haven for the blind, aged, poor and homeless, with charity centres worldwide. Recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 and the Bharat Ratna in 1980, she was beatified by Pope John Paul II after her death, and conferred the title, ‘Blessed Teresa of Calcutta.’
