The Volunteers of Don Bosco make history!
 
On Monday January 18 at 6.00 am (AEDST) a small group of Volunteers of Don Bosco (VDB) held their first International meeting in - Cyber-space!
 
Five Volunteers from four countries including, Belgium, Italy, Puerto Rico and Australia, met via their computers to exchange news, views and generally enjoy each other's company via a live computer chat program. Crossing cultural and language barriers the five Volunteers successfully carried out what is planned to become a monthly event.
 
The Volunteers hope to expand the use of this medium to hold more formal sessions and to increase the solidarity of their members all over the world. At present Volunteers from 10 countries share ideas, views and regular news items via the electronic mail system.
 
These occasions serve to bond the members more closely together and to provide opportunities of cultural exchanges that would otherwise be impossible.
 
A greater number of the Institute's members are expected to participate in the next session, increasing both the benefits and the joy of such meetings.
