The Salesians
Helping
others
to help
them-
selves.
True charity Isn't
always a handful of
rice... or the gift of a
warm shirt... It's helping others to help themselves.
A more lasting and dignified way, we say,
Since our foundation in 1859, this has been the
Salesian way Education is the keynote. What good Is a
meal today when one must think of all the tomorrows?
Si John Bosco knew this well What good are dreams
unless they are translated In reality by cfeeds?
Around the world, Salesian missloners help their
flock by giving them ways to help themselves. Whether it
is agricultural training or technical training for a trade
they can learn, people are encouraged to find their
own niche, their own way of betterment, their own road
to human dignity and self help.
Salesians work primarily for youth, for It Is in the
young that hope is born There are Salesian missions In
73 countries around the world. If you are interested
in a life that gives as much as it receives, fill-in the
coupon below,.. and we will send you additional
information on the Salesian way.
