The Saint Who Never Gave Up on Anyone.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the streets of Turin, Italy, in the mid-1800s, a young priest named Giovanni Bosco began gathering the children no one else wanted; the orphans, the street children, the young men fresh out of prison with nowhere to go and no one who believed in them. He did not meet them with severity or judgment. He met them with warmth, with humor, with patience, and with an unshakeable conviction that every young person, no matter how lost, was worth fighting for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe built schools, workshops, and homes. He founded the Salesians of Don Bosco, one of the largest religious orders in the world. He wore himself out in the service of the young and died in 1888 having transformed thousands of lives. The Church canonized him in 1934. The young people of Turin had already made him a saint in their hearts long before that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSan Giovanni Bosco — Don Bosco \u003c\/strong\u003eis the patron of youth, educators, apprentices, and all who work with and for the young.
