Luigi Caburlotto was a 19th-century Italian priest from Venice who dedicated his life to supporting vulnerable youth. Born in 1817 to a gondolier, he was ordained in 1842 and focused his pastoral efforts on helping abandoned or homeless children. He established several educational institutions, including a school for impoverished girls, which led to the founding of the Daughters of Saint Joseph. Despite declining health in his later years, he remained committed to his mission and the spiritual formation of his community until his death in 1897.
