Bosco – For Street Boys (40)

BOSCO was established in 1980 by the Salesians of Don Bosco. The acronym is “Bangalore Oniyavara Seva Coota” which means, the organization of those who serve on the streets of Bangalore or literally, “the association of those who serve youngsters on the streets of Bangalore”.BOSCO reaches out to children and young persons who are “at-risk”. Children living or earning on streets, children in conflict with law, orphan children, children from dysfunctional families, out of school children, children who are into substance abuse, who are victims of trafficking, child marriage or child labor, neglected or abused children, unaccompanied children, missing children are some of the major groups of “Young at Risk – YaR” that we care for and work with.

BOSCO SUMANAHALLI was established in 2005 with a purpose of providing skill training to the young people at risk to make them employable and thus give them a way to manage their life. It has the capacity to provide residential facility for 30 young people.
