Help Support Don Bosco Youth Centre

At Don Bosco Youth Centre, we provide a welcoming space where young people can learn, play, connect, and grow in faith and community. To continue supporting our programs, we are raising $1,500 for a new TV.

This TV will be used for school presentations, youth activities, and prayer gatherings led by our brothers and Father, helping us create engaging, meaningful experiences for everyone who walks through our doors.

Every contribution, big or small, will go directly toward making this happen and strengthening the opportunities we offer to our young people.
