Chef Training Highlight

When Shaunice lost both of her parents at a young age, she struggled to make ends meet. After learning she would be a mother at 16, she realized that she wanted a different story for her daughter. With some prior experience in the culinary industry and a love for food, she joined the Chef-In-Training Program and impressed everyone at Hillside Supper Club. We are eager to follow Shaunice's culinary career and family unfold. Support strong young women like Shaunice by donating to Sprouts Chef Training program today!
