EnglishHow to Donate to the Salesian Sisters of St. John Bosco
Updated
You can support the Salesian Sisters' mission through the Donate option on salesiansisters.org, which appears in the site's sticky side links alongside Visit and Serve. The site's "Support Our Mission" section states that contributions support the Sisters' work with the young and those most in need, both in the United States and around the world, and that donors may direct their gift toward specific areas. The site does not publish donation amounts, payment methods, or whether an account is required, so treat those details as unconfirmed until you reach the giving page.
What Your Donation Supports
The Sisters describe their mission as an "educational presence with and among the young," aiming to be signs of God's foreseeing love. Their stated focus is serving young people and those most in need. According to the site, gifts can be left undesignated for general mission support or directed to particular areas, so you can choose between broad support and a specific purpose.
Scale of the Congregation
The site's "At a Glance" figures give a sense of the reach a donation joins:
| Indicator | Figure |
|---|---|
| Sisters worldwide | 10,500 |
| Communities in mission | 1,265 |
| Novices in formation | 262 |
| Countries present | 97 |
| Founded | 1872 |
These numbers describe the congregation as a whole, not how any single gift is allocated.
Steps to Give
- Go to salesiansisters.org.
- Find the Donate link in the sticky side links, or scroll to the Support Our Mission section near the bottom of the home page.
- Choose whether to give to the general mission or select a specific area.
- Complete the gift on the giving page. Confirm the payment methods and any receipt details there, since the home page does not list them.
Before You Give
- Verify the destination. Confirm you are on salesiansisters.org and that the giving page matches the site's design before entering payment details.
- Decide on designation. If a particular area matters to you, use the option to direct your gift rather than giving generally.
- Check for a receipt. The site does not state whether donations are tax-deductible or what documentation is provided; look for this information on the giving page or ask the province directly.
Other Ways to Get Involved
