Mother Teresa's significant events, such as witnessing poverty in India, motivated her to dedicate her life to helping the poor. After experiencing a life-altering moment on a train journey to the Himalayan foothills, she felt an inner calling to serve the less fortunate. This led her to leave her teaching position and found the Missionaries of Charity in 1950, focusing on aiding the destitute and the dying in Kolkata. Her compassionate work drew attention to issues of poverty and humanitarian aid, earning her global recognition and establishing her as an enduring symbol of charity and selflessness.
