St. John Bosco, or Don Bosco, was a 19th-century Italian priest who devoted his life to helping poor and neglected youth. Born in 1815, he developed a compassionate educational approach based on reason, religion, and kindness. In 1859, he founded the Salesians of Don Bosco to support boys, and later co-founded a similar order for girls. Guided by deep faith and vivid dreams, he became a prolific writer and spiritual leader. Canonized in 1934, he is the patron saint of youth and educators. His legacy lives on through Salesian schools and missions worldwide, promoting hope and opportunity for young people.
