The Basilica of Mary Help of Christians of Turin-Valdocco is frequented by thousands of pilgrims from Italy and abroad. This is particularly visible during the Feast of Don Bosco and Mary Help of Christians. The Salesians, the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians, the many friends of Don Bosco and the whole Salesian Family look with particular affection at this Basilica.

In the course of time, according to the spirit of the founding Saint, it has become a center of irradiation of Marian spirituality and of the propagation of that Preventive System which places the sacraments of the Eucharist and reconciliation at the center of educational growth.
