Salesianos San Juan Bosco

What Salesianos San Juan Bosco does

Salesianos San Juan Bosco (legal name: INSPECTORIA SALESIANA MARIA AUXILIADORA) is a non-profit Catholic religious organization that operates as the provincial inspectory of the Salesians of Don Bosco (SDB) in southern and eastern Spain. Headquartered in Sevilla (C/ Salesianos 3 A, 41008) under CIF R4100020I, it is part of the global Salesian network founded by Saint John Bosco in Turin in 1859, with a continuous Spanish presence since 1875 and a history of more than 75 years at the Valencia location. The organization runs an integrated educational ecosystem spanning K-12 schools (Colegio Don Bosco Alicante, covering Infant through Bachillerato), parishes (María Auxiliadora), youth centers (Centros Juveniles Tucumán 7 and AJDB), Catholic scout groups (Scouts Impeesa under MSC), sports clubs (Club Deportivo Salesianos), a music school (Escuela de Música), a faith-formation curriculum (Comfya), and social-inclusion platforms (Bosco Global NGO, FISAT), supported by a network of formation houses in Sevilla, Alicante, Granada, Madrid, and Genzano di Roma.

The unifying platform and core methodology is the Sistema Preventivo de Don Bosco, a proprietary pedagogical framework built on three pillars — Reason, Religion, and Love — operationalized through the structured POI-PEPSI educational-pastoral project and the Carta de Identidad Carismática de la Familia Salesiana. The organization is governed by an Inspector and his council under the authority of the Rector Major of the Salesians in Rome; it is not a privately owned or publicly traded entity. Revenue is generated primarily through school tuition managed at the individual-center level, supplemented by parish contributions, donations, social-platform grants (Bosco Global, FISAT), and fees for ancillary services; pricing is not publicly disclosed and there is no app, API, or AI/ML layer. Go-to-market is direct and domestic, with families enrolling children via individual school centers and parish/youth-center services accessed on a community basis across Andalusia and the Valencia region.

The organization maintains an ecosystem of more than a dozen wholly operated subsidiaries spanning education, youth services, social inclusion, religious formation, and even higher education (Escola Universitària Salesiana Sarrià, Instituto Superior de Ciencias Religiosas Don Bosco, Colegio Mayor Universitario San Juan Bosco), and operates strategic partnerships with Cáritas, Don Bosco Green Alliance, MSC, FISAT, ACOMAR, and Gaia Acogimiento Familiar. The legal entity lists only ~43 central employees, but the operational footprint implies a substantially larger effective workforce of religious and lay staff across schools, parishes, and formation houses.
