VIDES volunteer missioners serve together with members of the Salesian family (Priests, Brothers,
Sisters, Cooperators, ADMA*...) at home and abroad joining efforts to be transformational leaders in
society by living a simple Christ-centered life while serving the poor. VIDES volunteers promote social
justice, solidarity, and generosity in sharing and giving of themselves.
