Livelihood Projects
Current Projects
- Vocational Courses at SMUS: Building a Brighter Future – At SMUS, we offer vocational courses in healthcare subjects, specially designed for students who have dropped out after Matriculation or Intermediate. These programs provide an excellent opportunity for students to continue their education and secure a better future. Authorized by Bharat Sevak Samaj (BSS, Chennai), our training centre equips students with the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in the healthcare field. Students can study, work, and earn during the course, enabling them to support their families and break the cycle of poverty. Our vocational courses not only provide education but also ensure placement opportunities, empowering students to build a promising career while contributing to their family’s well-being.
- Empowering Communities with Skills: Computer, Tailoring, and Beauty Parlour Training – At SMUS, we believe that functional skills are essential for sustainable income generation. Eliminating poverty is closely linked to eradicating unemployment, and employment cannot be created without proper training. To address this, SMUS offers comprehensive training programs in tailoring, computer education, and beauty parlour skills. These programs are open to both males and females from the rural areas of Muzaffarpur and Sheohar districts in Bihar. Our goal is to empower individuals with the skills needed to secure stable employment and improve their quality of life. Through our training, participants gain valuable expertise that enables them to generate income and contribute to their communities.

- Empowering Students with Paramedical Education – B.R.A.B.U University in Muzaffarpur, the only university in the region, had authorized SMUS to establish a study centre for paramedical courses. This initiative provided an incredible opportunity for students who had passed 10th and 12th grade but were unable to continue their education. The program offered hands-on training and theoretical learning, helping students to build a promising career in the healthcare field. Though the study centre has since been closed by B.R.A.B.U University, SMUS made a significant impact during its operation. It offered a range of programs including certificate courses, diploma courses, and advanced diploma courses. Additionally, SMUS facilitated placements for its students in various hospitals and institutions, ensuring they could apply their skills in real-world settings. This initiative by B.R.A.B.U University and SMUS has left a lasting legacy, empowering many students to achieve their professional goals in the paramedical field.
