Journey of Hope
In more than 130 different countries, our Salesian missionaries carefully steward the legacy of our founder, Saint John Bosco—whose preventive system of education has helped millions of precious girls and boys pull themselves out of poverty and live as independent and productive adults. Worldwide, in more than 5,500 primary and secondary schools, nearly 1,000 vocational and pre-professional programs, 330 orphanages and homeless shelters, and many temporary classrooms established in refugee camps and disaster zones, we help youth gain the knowledge and skills they need to reach their full potential—regardless of their ability to pay.
When you support our dedicated Journey of Hope campaign, you help us provide educational opportunities, food, shelter and other services to as many children as we can.
Thank you for your generosity! Every dollar matters, as even partial funding gets us closer to our goals.
