One of Mother Teresa's most notable contributions was her work with the
sick and dying in the slums of Calcutta (now Kolkata), India. She and her
fellow sisters provided comfort, medical care, and love to those who were
abandoned or otherwise neglected by society. This work brought global
attention to the plight of the poor and the need for compassionate care.
In 1979, Mother Teresa was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her
humanitarian work. The Nobel Committee praised her efforts to alleviate
human suffering and her dedication to serving the poorest of the poor.
