The Sisters of Mary officially started operations at Minglanilla Boystown in 1993 in order to welcome some of the most deprived boys from the age of 11 to 18, providing them with a safe place to live and learn.

The boys learn the full range of subjects including sciences and languages as well as valuable technical skills so when they graduate they have the skills they need to find stable jobs and build lasting careers. These studies include electronics (including solar panel installation and servicing) CAD, computer hardware servicing, auto-mechanics (including electric car servicing).

The boys enjoy their leisure time keeping fit with a full program of sports and physical activities and following a vast array of hobbies and extracurricular pursuits. These activities include athletics, football, basketball, table tennis, Arnis (the local dance and martial art)music and gardening.

All of this is only possible through the generosity of people like you. Every child deserves a good start in life and with your help we can continue to make this a reality.
