NEW YORK, N.Y. March 30, 2023 (Excerpt) The first day of the U.N. Water Conference, March 22, was international World Water Day, a day marked by Salesian Missions, the New York-based development arm of the Salesians of Don Bosco. The Salesians have made clean water projects a priority because billions of people globally “don’t have clean water for drinking, cooking, sanitation and other needs,” said Fr. Timothy Ploch, interim director of Salesian Missions. He said a Salesian clean water initiative has made “building wells and supplying fresh, clean water a top priority for every community in every country in which Salesian missionaries work.” See the full article here.
