how we work
EmpowerAid is a training organisation. We believe we can help the poor and vulnerable, together. That’s why we volunteer and empower women with free training in hairdressing and beauty. Almost a billion people live in extreme poverty. We reckon we can lend a hand, join with them, and do life together. We take teams of volunteers from across Australia for short term training blocks in hair and beauty skills. We don’t just teach, but laugh, cry and share the journey as women with women along the way. Each person in our training is known to us and we seek to sow into their whole life, not just make them productive.
We love to see them flourish, growing in confidence and hope. As they progress through the training and graduate, we seek to continue the journey and encourage them in their business of place of employment. For those who dream big, we walk alongside them as they develop their own business.
We seek to see our volunteers flourish as well – preparing them for the challenge of travel and ensuring their wellbeing also.
Based in Perth, we have a team of dedicated volunteers who manage the admin, attending to the myriad of tasks necessary to support the operation of a full scale training organisation!
