Pledge to make a difference, together.
Our mission: To generate and guide the processes of social transformation by educating children, young people, and their families.
Our vision: To be a self-sustainable educational community with an exponentially increasing impact on the socioeconomic development of high-risk communities through particular attention to children, adolescents, and young people
Our programs provide educational services, from primary through high school and preparatory levels, to the Morelos population of children, adolescents, and young adults living in vulnerable socio-economic situations. We benefit more than 1,320 students in four municipalities by applying a humanistic model integrating education with a risk prevention program based on three main axes: training for peace, solidarity, and hope.
Monthly internal cost per student: 1,622.25 pesos 81% of our students have scholarships We provide Primary, Secondary, Preparatorio, Universidad, and Post-Grad
The Don Bosco Community Our community includes a scholarship program on our four campuses: Cuernavaca, Emiliano Zapata, Popotlan, and Colonia Juan Morales. These scholarships benefit 81% of our students, with the scholarship percentage calculated in relation to individual financial needs. For the past ten years, we have offered education to the children of Mixtec artisans who live in the "El Chiflon" ravine in Chulavista. Don Bosco's agreement with "El Centro Educativo La Buena Tierra" allows children from the former train tracks in Cuernavaca to continue their studies at the middle and high school levels. Through various agreements with Morelos's universities, Don Bosco's graduates are guaranteed access to both public and private universities. In the past five years, our Educaton program has allowed 821 students over 18 to obtain their Baccalaureate Certificate by Agreement 286 of the SEP. To date, Don Bosco has two economically productive projects: a bazaar and a water purification plant. These projects directly benefit the foundation and the nearby community.
Juan Morales Rural Campus The Juan Bosco Digital Baccalaureate, located on the Juan Morales campus, began operations in 2016 at the request of the neighborhood's inhabitants in Yecapixtla, Morelos. Through a permanent commitment with UNAM five generations of students have graduated with a Preparatory degree, with a student continuity rate between grades trending at 98% Each school year, an average of 100 students study a curriculum based on the B@UNAM high school model in conjunction with the Don Bosco Foundation's humanistic model to provide comprehensive academic, psychological, and emotional support from a perspective of restorative justice and a risk prevention approach based on a Culture of Peace.
Popotlan Rural Campus In 2015, the Popotlan High School opened its doors in Temoac, Morelos. Since this community had no viable high school options for young people, the Don Bosco Foundation proposed opening a high school using the same digital model developed in San Juan with UNAM. Most of the parents of our students at this campus are farmers or employees of the Huazulco candy factories. In this school year (24-25), 44 students are pursuing their high school degree through the B@UNAM agreement.
