• History

The Institute of the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians (FMA) also known as the Salesian Sisters of Don Bosco is an organization founded in Italy in the year 1872 by Don Bosco, the great modern educator in collaboration with St. MariaDomenicaMazzarello.

 

• Don Bosco wanted to set up an Institute that would reach out to many poor and abandoned young girls, in the same way he did for boys. It was Maria Domenica Mazzarello who, as co-founder of this Institute gave life and form to this newly founded Institute, on August 5^th, 1872. St. Maria Domenica Mazzarello died in 1881 at the age of 44. Her life was short but her untiring zeal for service gave strong impetus to this nascent movement making it flourish into the 20th century and beyond.

 

• The International Headquarters is located in Rome (Italy). We are numbering about 13,000 and work in the spirit of St. John Bosco and St. Mary Mazzarello through about 1500 educational institutions spread over 94 different countries on all six continents.
