Presentation of the work
The work in the Salesian Youth Center of Celje follows the idea of St. John Bosco, who in the 19th century started with a new educational method called the “preventive system”. This is based on four educational environments: home, yard, school and church, and on three attitudes of the educator: reason, faith and benevolence.
The last volunteer
The last volunteer with us was Marko Marđonović from Montenegro, who says about his experience in Celje
“By volunteering, I gained new experience in working with children and young people. Through the programs run by the youth center, I improved my organizational and communication skills.”
