Support two Rwandan beauty salon owners, Sylvie and Jeanne, who, with Bpeace help, plan to create the first beauty vocational school in Rwanda. The school will help Rwandans with no job skills.
The beauty industry thrives in Rwanda, yet many Rwandans who would love to work in the industry are jobless. This is because the country lacks a beauty school. The Congo provides a steady stream of trained professionals, taking jobs that could go to needy Rwandans. To address this, Bpeace's Rwandan beauty salon Associates have a dream of establishing a beauty school. In addition to providing unskilled workers with careers, the school will help the salon Associates' businesses thrive.
Classes will run 6 days a week, including classroom work and practical instruction in beauty salons. Curriculum will be influenced by international styles, expertise and experience; trainers/teachers will include Rwandans and guest American lecturers
The beauty school of Rwanda is an intensive program designed to create a skilled professional able to turn lessons into income. There will be 20 graduates in Year 1. Increases in human capital lead to sustainable businesses, jobs, & communities.
