"The importance of passing on the good received"
,, Social responsibility and the importance of passing on the good received are part of the basic elements that founded the Bakery School. It is extremely moving to discover the dedication and empathy of these children for vulnerable people, when in turn each of them has a family drama that they carry on their shoulders daily. They are children from disadvantaged families, many live with only one parent and have to work after school to support their families. We thank the people from the Cherish the Moment foundation for giving them the opportunity to get involved, to bring joy to the faces of grandparents, to feel important and useful,, said Gabriela Bereș, country manager for Central and Eastern Europe, Puratos Romania.
Easter preparations
"Thank you on behalf of all the elderly and children who received the products made by Bakery School Romania students, for their involvement, generosity and willingness to support our actions. For some of these grandparents, the volunteers who bring them weekly hot meals are the only people who cross their threshold, offering them a smile and a kind word.
During this period, when we are mentally preparing for the Holy Holiday, we are sure that for these children and the elderly, the Easter cakes made by the Bakery School students will bring the spirit of Easter closer, but at the same time, they will convey to them that they are not alone, that someone is close to them, regardless of how we can achieve this, said Georgeta Nenciu, founder of Cherish the Clip.
