SOS Children's Village began its work on Mauritius in 1990, when the first SOS Children's Village was founded in Beau Bassin. In 1991, the first families moved in and in the following year, the SOS Children's Village was officially inaugurated. Four years later, in 1996, two SOS Youth Houses were opened, and in 1997, the first youths moved in, to live there during the time of their vocational training or education and to prepare themselves for an independent life under the guidance of their youth leaders. In 1999 the construction of a second SOS Children's Village on Mauritius was approved, it will be erected in Bambous, the capital of the province Black River.
