Yaoundé, Cameroon – March 2025 – The Salesians of Yaoundé have joyfully announced the acquisition of a new home dedicated to the city's street children— a place of shelter, support, and education for young people in vulnerable situations. From the very first days, enthusiasm was high, as the young beneficiaries themselves took part in the initial cleanup efforts. Armed with brooms, rakes, and determination, they worked together to make the house a clean and welcoming space.

This collective effort not only showcases their willingness to be involved but also reflects the hope and dignity they find in this new chapter of their lives. The Salesian home will not just be a refuge but a place where these young people can rebuild themselves, learn, and dream of a better future.

“Through the activities we will organize—literacy programs, recreational activities, spiritual and moral support—we want to provide them with an environment where they feel loved, valued, and supported in their life journey,” say the Salesians of Yaoundé.

“We thank God for this great opportunity and express our gratitude to everyone, near and far, who contributes to this Salesian mission in service of the most vulnerable. May this house truly be a home of fraternity and hope for all who enter its doors,” conclude the Sons of Don Bosco.
