ANA MARIA REGINALDO, 27, resides in Manga, close to the Young Africa campus. She is married with 3 children. Ana was aware of Young Africa and decided to enrol after hearing her friend speak highly of the Catering course and the opportunities it afforded her.
Her husband supported her and helped with fees. She enrolled because she wanted to assist with household expenses. Ana excelled during the training and graduated in December 2018. The Young Africa marketing team secured an internship for her at Hotel Mozambique. Her manager at the hotel was so impressed by her culinary flair and work ethic that after her internship she was offered a permanent job. She is now refining her skills in this reputable hotel but has not abandoned her dream of setting up her own business.
Ana’s life has improved since she completed the Catering course at Young Africa. She noted that she feels fulfilled as she is productive. She can pay her children’s school fees, contribute to household expenses and with savings she has bought land to build her own house. She added that she encourages other young women to enrol and have a bright future.
