The tropical weather in Cambodia reaches over 100 degrees, making the outdoor basketball court at the Don Bosco School hazardous and unsafe to use during the day. The Salesian Sisters would like to cover the basketball court with a steel roof to protect students from the sun and excessive heat, allowing a safe place to play during school hours and on weekends.

This project is located at the Don Bosco School Teuk Thia, in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

The total cost to construct a protective steel roof over the basketball court = $19,824.00

The Don Bosco Home in Kandi houses children who have been abused, abandoned and exploited. Most of them have fled from their homes and families, and have begun the dangerous act of living and trying to survive on the dangerous city streets. The Don Bosco Home provides them with food, shelter and an education for the chance at a better life. Without proper funding, this life-saving facility cannot continue to operate and dozens of children will be at risk of losing this sanctuary.

This on-going project is located at the Don Bosco Home in Kandi, Benin.

The total cost to maintain the home, including supplies, staff and activities for one year = $71,162.00

This project received one year of funding (through November 2021) from a local resource. Continued on-going support is needed to keep this home functioning.

The Salesian Sisters operate a Catholic school serving over 350 students. Natural disasters and flooding have led to the destruction of the infrastructure and they must rebuild their gymnasium to meet safety requirements. Without the gym, the school can’t offer physical education or open it to extra-curricular activities for students and events for the local community. Rebuilding the gym would serve the students and community, and allow for 100 additional students to attend.

This is a major project with an astronomical cost, so even partial funding would help answer the Sisters’ prayers:

a. Improvement and covering of roof = $53,726.00
b. Install fire hydrants = $35,498.00
c. Install central heating system = $46,371.00
