#Throwback to 1975 when Mother Teresa of Calcutta made a statement at the World Conference on Women in #Mexico. For more than 45 years, Mother Teresa worked for the poor, sick, orphaned and dying. She received the @nobelprize_org for Peace in 1979 for her charitable work. Her selflessness helped inspire the creation of Monday's International #CharityDay - the anniversary of her passing. Show your support by thanking all those who are doing their part to make the world a better place. Tell us in the comments who you would like to thank! 📷: UN Photo/B Lane #GlobalGoals
