Beauty training in Pakistan

Donation protected
Hello
 
My name is Heather Haslam, I am an
Esthetician of 31 years from Vancouver
Canada with 20 years teaching and directing
Spa programs in the Esthetics industry.
 
I am leaving shortly to Pakistan on a volunteer mission to put together a training
and curriculum for displaced women from
Afghanistan to support them in the beauty
industry and create a training center for them.
 
The funds donated will help me with travel /
flight, accommodation and living expenses as I volunteer my time and expertise to teach massage, facials, waxing and nail care to empower and help build a future for these displaced women.
 
This project is important to me to give these
women the knowledge necessary to help
them move forward in their journey, and to
give them tools to teach and share their
knowledge with each other after I'm gone by creating a school. 

Hundreds of thousands of Afghans have fled over the border to Pakistan. The Afghan families suffer due to the volume of Afghans in Pakistan and their inability to find work. The situation is mentally and emotionally stressful.  We believe the Beauty School will make a difference for the Afghan families in Pakistan and continue to do so if they can safely return to Afghanistan.

This skill will benefit women and their families for years to come. They will teach their daughters this skill, and they can provide services out of their home, in a salon, or the clients home. This is a safe female driven business tool for survival.
 
Being  educated  and trained in the beauty industry offers an opportunity for both illiterate and literate Afghan women otherwise unable to recieve
training, to provide much needed economic
support for their families.
 
Thanks for supporting is project.
