Who are the Salesians and what do they do?  The famous Bishop Fulton Sheen once called them a "modern miracle." From humble beginnings in the last century, the Salesians of Don Bosco have become one of three largest religious families of men and women in the Church.
      
 
Hannaya, Lebanon – Thanks to the work of the Salesians, of the youngsters and lay people from the Al Fidar and El Houssoun houses, many youngsters and their families have been able to find a welcome, and receive first aid and other help and humanitarian support.

SALESIANS AROUND THE WORLD:

Our Mission is to teach young people various trades that will help them find decent jobs and become self-sufficient, contributing members of society.

The Salesians insist that the needy help themselves in whatever way they can, even minimally. They do not encourage dependence or paternalism, but strive to live up to the working maxim, “helping others to help themselves.”

Today, we continue our mission of caring for the poor children of the world with missionaries in over 131 countries.
