"This is my first job, and I feel very lucky to have such a beautiful job with this team. I have been learning a lot, and this helped me find more work. Meals with Impact helps us as women to support our families"
Elisa
"This is my first job working in a kitchen. Before Meals with Impact I worked for many years in a factory, now I love working with food. I lost my job in the pandemic, and many people told me I was too old to find a new job. Now I feel confident, and I am learning new things every day"
Fatouma

“I am learning so much every day – I love talking with my team and improving my English. We are always smiling and laughing together.”
