With the aid of American Benefactors, a chapel was erected in 1965. However, a furious typhoon demolished it on November 4, 1967. With the financial assistance of the Superior General, Fr. Luigi Ricceri, and numerous friends and benefactors, the Church was build into a beautiful Marian landmark. On April 29, 1969, the novitiate was assigned in Canlubang, until it transferred to Granada, Bacolod City in 1989. Simultaneously with these bits of illustrious history was the birth of Don Bosco College, as recognized by the government. Since it first started giving BSEd degrees in 1968, it has flourished into a College which aims at higher things, beautifully expressed in its motto, Ad Maiora Natus - "Born for Greater Things". It is now giving degrees in Secondary Education, Technical Education, Religious Education, and Philosophy.
