Calcutta House, founded over two decades ago by Mother Teresa’s Brothers of Charity in a rented, five bedroom row home in the University City area of West Philadelphia, originally provided a clean, comfortable, accepting and supportive place for ostracized individuals with end-stage AIDS to spend their final months in peace and comfort.
