Project Shakti: Women’s Vocational Training

Supporting women to become economically independent through training in the beauty arts.

Located on the Bal Ashram property, Project Shakti has been inspiring and uplifting an ever-growing population of underprivileged women in Varanasi since 2009.

For women living in distressed communities, learning professional beauty skills provides an opportunity to be independent. The Shakti Beauty School trains women in haircutting, makeup application, manicure and pedicure, facials, and more. Graduates have gone on to enroll in advanced beauty programs and pursue careers in the beauty arts.
