Overview
I'm a hardworking student from an impoverished family. I am a single mother. I dropped out of school 5 years ago.
I became pregnant in 2018 and dropped out of school for a year and a half. I was not able to meet the college entry requirements and have decided to start a new career as a caterer. My goal is to obtain a catering certificate from a vocational training school. I hope to open up a small restaurant to support myself and my young son.
I need financial help to pay for my catering school tuition, uniforms, and equipment and purchase the needed supplies for the practicals.
These funds will also help me go to the next level and become self-sufficient.
