Providing training and job opportunities of part-time private chefs to women of diverse race or from low-income families

 

The venture aims to provide job opportunities of part-time private chefs to women of diverse race or from low-income families who are good at cooking. Training on communication skills and tips on performing the duties of a private chef will be given to the women. A website will be set up to provide information about the chefs and their menus and to take orders online. The trained part-time private chefs will buy ingredients and then prepare meals at customers’ homes. During the preparation process, the chefs can share their stories with the customers and thereby enhance their self-confidence and communication skills. Additionally, the flexible working hour of the job enables them to strike a balance between earning extra income and taking care of their families.
