To achieve the goal of the effort, Martha Tilaar Group is sharing beauty education by building schools and training centers, holding beauty classes as well as working together with educational institutions and the government to enhance the knowledge of Indonesian people, especially women, about natural beauty.

Puspita Martha International Beauty School is producing professional workers which are not only able to create jobs for themselves, but also open new jobs for others.
