Shanghai Young Bakers (SYB) is a charity program based in Shanghai, China providing a fully sponsored training in French and Chinese bakery and pastry to disadvantaged Chinese youth from 17 to 23 years of age. The goal is to allow them to find qualified jobs in the bakery-pastry making sector and lead an independent life after graduation. == History == Shanghai Young Bakers was initiated in 2008 as a social innovation project by the French Junior Economic Chamber of Shanghai. A group of 12 French people, who had been living in China for a few years, wished to contribute a meaningful project to the country that had welcomed them. Inspired by a social bakery La Boulangerie Française in Hue, Vietnam, they discovered that there was a high demand for French bakery in China as well, due to the rapid growth of bakeries and 4/5 stars hotels. Given the lack of a high-quality French bakery training in China at that time, SYB was created in order to equip the underprivileged with a skill that was needed on the job market. The project was officially launched in February 2009 with the first batch of 16 students. Initially six-months long, the training now lasts one year. On 16 May 2010, the project was handed over to a charity with a longstanding history of effective social work in China, the Chi Heng Foundation, in order to guarantee the program's social mission and ensure its long-term continuity. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shanghai Young Bakers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
