QC partnership picking 200 culinary arts scholars

The Center for Culinary Arts’ (CCA Manila) social advocacy arm, Culinary Education Foundation (CEF), has partnered with the Rotary Club of Sto. Domingo Quezon City, and the Rotary International District 3780 to provide vocational scholarship to 200 beneficiaries, including indigent youth.

The Rotary Club has committed to provide funding for the project through its network of 101 Rotary Clubs in Quezon City.

The civic organization will also select the candidates to the program, where at least 200 indigent high school graduates from Quezon City and nearby communities shall benefit.

CEF’s culinary program will last for 18 to 20 weeks.

The scholars will then be assessed for Technical Education and Skills Development Authority certification and may be employed in The Cravings Group’s restaurants, hotels and schools, according to Dr. Ma. Veritas Luna, chancellor of education of CCA Manila and former president of Rotary Club of Sto. Domingo.
