- Mi Esperanza Course: Beauty Class 2006/Personal Skills 2006
“After participating in Mi Esperanza’s Beauty Class, I started working at a Beauty Salon called “Salon de Belleza Maine”, at Barrio La Ronda (Downtown). My schedule is from Monday thru Saturday, 7:00 am - 6:00 pm. I have worked there for three years now, and appreciate my job and believe Mi Esperanza opened the door for this job opportunity.
This has not only helped me economically, but emotionally. It has built my self-esteem, by discovering I am capable of being productive and independent.
I am grateful to have an excellent boss that has taught me new things, and has been very supportive and trusts me.”
