Agencies
The Salesians of Don Bosco in South Asia actively collaborate with a wide range of agencies—governmental, non-governmental, corporate, and international—because their mission of education and youth empowerment aligns closely with broader social development goals. These agencies join hands with Don Bosco institutions for several reasons, including:

Credibility and Trust: Don Bosco institutions have a long-standing reputation for integrity, transparency, and effective grassroots work, making them reliable partners. Reach and Impact: With schools, technical institutes, and youth centers spread across South Asia, the Salesians have direct access to marginalized communities, ensuring that projects reach those most in need. Shared Mission: Agencies often seek to promote education, skill development, and social inclusion—areas where Don Bosco has proven expertise. Capacity Building: Don Bosco centers provide structured training, monitoring, and evaluation, which agencies value for ensuring sustainability and accountability in projects. Holistic Approach: The Salesians integrate education, spirituality, and social responsibility, offering a comprehensive model that resonates with agencies seeking long-term impact.

Skill Development & Employment: Agencies partner with Don Bosco Tech to train youth in trades and connect them to industries. Education & Literacy: Collaborations support schools, scholarships, and literacy programs for disadvantaged children. Social Outreach: Joint initiatives address issues like child protection, women’s empowerment, health awareness, and disaster relief. Community Development: Agencies work with Don Bosco Planning and Development Offices (PDOs) to implement projects in rural and urban poor communities.

``If it was not for Father U P Sebastian and Father Mathew George, and the kindness of Madam Petra, the miracle of the restoration of my eyesight would never have happened,`` said Darshan Oraon, a 21-year-old youngster after the eye surgery. Darshan hailing from Oodlabari tea gardens in North Bengal had to undergo surgery for his eye for an injury of 33 months old. His insatiable desire to learn to ride a motorbike ended in a tragedy when a speeding motorbike hit him from behind, throwing him off the road and causing severe injury to his face and eye on that ill-fated day in December 2018.

Besides the unstinting service of India`s medical professionals and other frontline warriors in the fight against the deadly virus, the networks of friends, family and colleagues mobilized to share resources and combat misinformation have contributed to mitigating the situation. Social media and messaging apps also have facilitated this process, allowing relative strangers to lend a hand. Following this cue, the social media groups and networks established by the Alumni Association of Don Bosco School, Alaknanda, proved invaluable to its members and others.
