At Salesianum, service projects focus more on building real connections than accumulating hours.
Rooted in the Gospel, the principles of Catholic social teaching, and the spirituality of St. Francis de Sales, our four-year service expectations support the community in meaningful ways. By helping the poor, marginalized, and vulnerable, students emerge as Salesian Gentlemen with true servant mentalities.
