The Salvation Army Pakistan Territory launched the project Livelihoods for Transgender Community in March 2023, which has given beautician training to the most marginalised community in Lahore. This group faces huge discrimination, and without education and skills they would have no access to employment opportunities.
With the collaboration of a renowned institute, STEP-Skills Development Foundation, a select group was trained by professionals for three months in different forms of internationally recognised make-up. The students felt it was a secure learning environment with helpful and caring teachers. At their graduation, all 20 talented participants were gifted beauty kits to help them launch their careers.
