Graduation 1st generation of students El Salvador

In February 2023 we opened our 11th Bakery School in Santa Ana, El Salvador, the first of its kind for the country. The Bakery School provides quality education and employment opportunities for young people from disadvantaged backgrounds in a state-of-the-art environment, fostering a positive impact on their lives and prospects.

In December 2024 we celebrated the first graduation of 12 students in El Salvador.

Gloria Lucha was one them. In the meantime she started a first job in a bakery in her hometown of Santa Ana. She feels very lucky that this opportunity was given to her because she was able to grow professionally but mainly personally. The schools gave her the tools and values to grow as a person, to respect what was given to her and to move forward to create a better future for herself and her family. She discovered her passion for pastry, breads and chocolate but it were the extra courses such as English and communication that made her grow as a person. She gained a lot of self-esteem and confidence and she feels that the Bakery School turned her into a better person. As Gloria says: “Without a doubt, the Bakery School El Salvador, is a great opportunity for many, helping us grow, supporting us 100%, and preparing us in the best way to succeed day by day.”
