☼ SHELTER DON BOSCO

HISTORY

Shelter Don Bosco was founded in 1987 by the Salesain Province of Mumbai during the celebrations organized to commemorate the death centenary Don Bosco. Initially, Shelter dealt only with problems related to roofless and rootless street children, but over the years there has been the development of various programs which deal with problems faced by all poor and marginalized children in the city of Mumbai.
