There are many people belonging to different
organizations, who try to
feed the hungry, heal the
sick and educate
the ignorant. The problems of the poor are so great
that it seems only
large organizations with huge
amount of money could ever hope to
solve them.
However, one woman has done
a lot for the poor in Calcutta by going to the
poorest of the
poor people alone with
only a few coins in her pocket. This remarkable
woman is known
as Mother Theresa.
In 1948, Mother Theresa set
out
alone, wearing a white sari
made of cheap
cotton cloth, with a blue border and a cross on the
shoulder. She went to stay
with some American nursing nuns to get some medical
training. She needed
the nursing skills so that she could be of
help to the
poor. Then, in a little cubicle given to her
by a poor
family, she opened a school. She
taught the
children of the slums how to read and how to
keep themselves
clean.
Mother Theresa had no money
except for those few coins, no food
except what she was given.
Soon, however, some of the girls she had taught came
to her aid, and so the work of helping the slum
dwellers of Calcutta began/started
to expand.
