Building a world where all people can be happy

Grant to the Etasha Society

   

Etasha Society provides employability and vocational skills training to youngsters living in the slums of New Delphi, India. With the 2009 grant of $10,000 from the AllPeopleBeHappy foundation, Etasha expanded its outreach effort.  Project Disha is focused on providing Career Guidance, Employability and Vocational Training to underprivileged youth such as orphans, runaway and street children, who are now living in an institutional environment.  After a search for a suitable institution, Don Bosco Aashalayam orphanage was selected.  Their current facility provides food, shelter and housing to approximately 150 children.  Workshops on career guidance and employability skills were specifically developed for the older youths in this orphanage.  Skills include English proficiency, computer skills, interviewing skills, and general social skills.  Etasha then works to place the graduates in jobs with reputable companies.  (www.etashasociety.org)
