(:def: "The diversity of NGOs strains any simple definition. They include many groups and institutions that are entirely or largely independent of government and that have primarily humanitarian or cooperative rather than commercial objectives. They are private agencies in industrial countries that support international development; indigenous groups organized regionally or nationally; and member-groups in villages. NGOs include charitable and religious associations that mobilize private funds for development, distribute food and family planning services and promote community organization. They also include independent cooperatives, community associations, water-user societies, women's groups and pastoral associations. Citizen Groups that raise awareness and influence policy are also NGOs" - World Bank.
There are a number of Salesian NGOs, some operating at local and provincial level, and others with at least regional and international outreach, amongst which Salesian NGOs based in New Rochelle, Madrid, Bonn, Turin, Delhi, Melbourne. The first-named began operations in 1947. The most recent is Delhi (2009)
