Do what you can. Start where you are. I think you’ll find, as I have found, that when you help make other people’s dreams come true, your own dreams will come true as well.

-Laura Qirko

To say that Mother Teresa, now recognized as St. Teresa of Kolcata (formerly known as Calcutta in English), has impacted millions of people from around the world who have never even seen her in person-much less met her, touched her, talked with her-

would be an understatement of epic proportions. But for those who did meet her, talk with her, and were touched by her-like Laura Qirko (Cher-ko)-her impact reaches beyond the temporal and into the eternal.

I am a humanitarian woman, Laura says. And I want to encourage everyone I encounter, whether I meet them in person or through the pages of my book, to join me in this mission. You don’t have to be a millionaire to serve others. It costs nothing to love and respect each other. Mother Teresa once said, ‘We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.’

As you read the amazing story of Laura’s humanitarian journey, you, too, will be inspired to make a difference right where you are- today!
