Mother Mary Teresa Bojaxhiu would commit herself to religious life by age 12 . She had always been fascinated by missionaries and left home at 18 to learn English and become a missionary in Ireland . She later moved on to India , where she learned Bengali and took religious vows to become a Catholic nun . Her charitable work truly began in 1948 , when she adopted Indian citizenship and worked with the poorest individuals in the country .
Mother Teresa , who died in 1997 after 45 dedicated years of charitable service , is remembered as a woman of great faith and unmatched charitable donation . In fact , she left such a legacy that the Hungarian Parliament and Government established International Day of Charity in her honor in 2011 . They chose September 5th , the anniversary of her death , to commemorate her life with their civil service initiative .
