Egypt: Enriching Lives of Vulnerable Youth through “Salesian Missions”
Alexandria, Egypt – December 2024 – In recent months, the Salesians in Alexandria have organized a variety of activities aimed at vulnerable youth in the city. These events, held at the Don Bosco Institute, were made possible through funding from “Salesian Missions,” the Salesian Mission Office based in New Rochelle, USA. Approximately 320 young participants, hailing from the city’s poorest neighborhoods and surrounding communities near the Sacred Heart Church, benefited from these initiatives. Additionally, a project was launched to train 50 volunteers who interacted with the youth, embodying the model of Don Bosco as positive role models for the young.
