They may be at risk from domestic or gang violence, addiction and crime. The Don Bosco center offers them the chance to change their lives. They can continue their education at the center and learn English and computer skills. There are seminars on health and nutrition, self esteem, values and citizenship and they also enjoy sporting and cultural activities. The kitchen will provide them with nutritious meals and give them a better start in life.<\/p>\n<p>WATCH THE VIDEO<\/p>\n<div  class='avia-video avia-video-16-9   av-lazyload-immediate  av-lazyload-video-embed  '   itemprop=\"video\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject\"  data-original_url='https:\/\/youtu.be\/F7PzuSg9rKs ' ><script type='text\/html' class='av-video-tmpl'><div class='avia-iframe-wrap'><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"SIGN UP FOR THE THIRD ROYAL RESORTS FOUNDATION RACE, FEB 18\" width=\"1500\" height=\"844\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/F7PzuSg9rKs?feature=oembed&autoplay=0&loop=0&controls=1&mute=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div><\/script><div class='av-click-to-play-overlay'><div class=\"avia_playpause_icon\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<p><strong>Register for the 2018 Royal Resorts Foundation Race today<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Register online at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.royalresorts.com\/form_frr\/\">www.royalresorts.com\/foundation<\/a><\/strong><br \/>\nEmail: <a href=\"mailto:contact@royalresortsfoundation.org\">contact@royalresortsfoundation.org<\/a><br \/>\nInvite your friends and family to take part!<\/p>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_image-f3acd679a4638e371e344365dd3a7c08\">\n.avia-image-container.av-av_image-f3acd679a4638e371e344365dd3a7c08 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-av_image-f3acd679a4638e371e344365dd3a7c08 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-1  el_after_av_video  avia-builder-el-last  '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image- avia-img-lazy-loading-not- avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/www.royalresorts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/race-3rd.jpg\" alt='' title=''   itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On your marks, are you ready to compete in the 2018 Royal Resorts Foundation Race and support a worthy cause?
