Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder.
At a recent summer vocational training class held at a HoPE Learning Center in Coimbatore, children were taught how to recognize inner beauty and how to make everyone more beautiful on the outside as well.
Long-time beautician Mrs. Nithya, taught eager girls and boys how to use readily-available natural resources to beautify the hair, skin and nails of clients. She spoke about how healthy foods and fitness keep bodies and minds youthful and how different kinds of skin and hair require different beauty regimens.
She trained the children in creating different types of hair styles and Mehandi designs.
All of these skills could significantly enhance the incomes of these girls and boys in years to come.
It doesn’t take much to fill the lives of children with wonderment and beauty.
For only $10 a month, you can sponsor a HoPE Center child all year long, including attendance at summer workshops. For a one-time gift of $30, you can cover the costs of a local child during one of these transformative summer trainings.
