Before India gained its freedom，many Westerners were extremely shocked by its poverty and so they came to serve here．A special girl   (call)Agnes Goxa Bojaxiu was among them, who is today   (know)as Mother Teresa．
Agnes was born on August27，1910 and was just 19 years old    she came to Calcutta on January 6，1929．And she never left this country．Her aim in life was   (serve)the sick and the poor and she dedicated her full life to this purpose．She would walk around the   (danger)，dark and dirty streets of Calcutta at night，  (offer)food to the sick and shelter to the poor．When she first arrived in Calcutta, she had little money on her and was helped by a priest．
Through her efforts she managed to open several institutions   (help)the mentally and physically challenged children．She had a thousand institutions working under her．Mother Teresa was awarded    Nobel Peace Prize in 1979 and the Bharat Ratna in 1980．these she also received the Jawaharlal Nehru Award for International Peace(1972)，the Templeton Foundation Award(1973)．
Despite all the public praise，national and international． (honour)，Mother Teresa remained humble．kind and generous till the end．She passed away in September 1997．
