My name is Bhagyashree Cariappa Shivagi. I am 29 years old. I studied till the 9th standard. I enrolled for the parlour course at Nirmaan Organisation.My father passed away when I was little. I completed my further education with the help of my mother. I am living with my grandparents, mother, uncle, aunt and 2 brothers. My economic situation is very bad. I first learned tailoring and then worked at home. Then also I couldn’t fulfill my basic needs. One day my friend told me about the Nirmaan Organisation. She told me they are giving free beautician and tailoring courses. I am interested in the subject of beauty. So, I decided to take admission to the beautician course. I have to face a lot of problems to come regularly to classes. I never went out of my house but now I go to attend classes. The distance is long from my house to the centre, almost an hour by walk.
I was facing lots of problems, but I overcame all the problems and decided to complete my course very sincerely. Now it’s completed, I learned a lot of things like hairstyle, saree dressings, haircut and I believe I will be a good beautician. I will work and after a few years, I will open my own beauty parlour. I am thanking Nirmaan Organisation for giving me this chance to complete my dreams. I thank my trainers, organisers and donor HSBC for giving me this golden opportunity and many more ladies like me. Thanks!
