SYB baking class for the children of Chi Heng Foundation has far reaching impact
SYB烘焙课对智行基金会儿童产生深远影响
On Sunday, March 1st, eight children sponsored by Chi Heng Foundation participated in a Shanghai Young Bakers baking class featuring pain au lait, a type of brioche, and cookies. As Chi Heng Foundation is not only Shanghai Young Bakers umbrella organization and longstanding partner, but also the main entity to recommend students for Shanghai Young Bakers’ vocational training program, the connection the children made with SYB during the class could have a major impact on their futures.
3月1日，周日，八位接受智行基金会帮助的孩子来到海上青焙坊烘焙中心学习制作法式牛奶面包和饼干。智行基金会不仅是海上青焙坊的管理机构和合作伙伴，而且是每年海上青焙坊推荐生源的主要来源。因此， 智行基金会的孩子通过此次课程与海上青焙坊建立的联系对他们未来产生深远的影响。
Chi Heng Foundation’s mission is to “fund and operate projects in education and care for children and adults impacted by AIDS, AIDS prevention and anti-discrimination”. Every year Chi Heng Foundation recommends more than half of Shanghai Young Bakers’ students, and they go on to lead successful careers as bakers, serving as inspirations to their communities.
智行基金会的主要目标为“通过资助和管理教育、关怀、预防及反歧视等项目”。每年，智行基金会都为海上青焙坊推荐一半以上的生源，而这些被推荐来的学生最终都成为了成功的面包师，激励着他们家乡其他的孩子。
The week of the SYB baking class was a day of firsts for the Chi Heng- sponsored children. They were in the city for the first time on a group field trip that took them to famous Shanghai cultural sites such as the Shanghai Museum and the Bund. They were cooking French-style bread for the first time. And during the lunch break, students encountered traditional French quiche for the first time, while taking inaugural stabs at using Western style silverware to eat it.
这一天，来自智行的孩子们经历了不少人生中的“第一次”。这是他们第一次来到大城市。在这次旅途中，孩子们还去了许多上海的著名景点，比如上海博物馆和外滩。他们也是第一次制作法式面包。在中饭时，孩子们第一次享受到了正宗法式乳蛋饼，并且第一次使用了刀叉。
After lunch, the children took creative license with their baked goods, cutting out cookie dough shapes of flowers, birds and bunnies alike. The brioche dough was subject to more free form molding, some students opting to create small mice with chocolate chip eyes rather than the traditional braided shape.
中饭后，学生们在制作面包和饼干时充分发挥了他们的创意和艺术天性。他们把饼干面团切成了花，鸟，小兔子等等，烤盘上摆满了各式各样形状的面团。接着，孩子们根据自己的喜好把面团放进模具中。有的把面团做成了老鼠的样子，用巧克力片做眼睛。
The Chi Heng children’s baking class in Shanghai was a meaningful part of their first trip to the city. It not only gave them the chance to experience French baking, but also introduced them to a charity program they have the opportunity to apply for in the coming years.
智行基金会孩子们的烘焙课是他们上海之旅意义非凡的一部分。此次课程不仅给了他们体验法式烘焙的机会，还向他们展示了一个可能的未来。
After connecting with SYB graduates and current students from the children’s own hometown Henan province, we hope they can continue sharing about their experience when they return home. We look forward to maintaining this connection and receiving more application from this area in the future!
在孩子们与来自他们家乡河南省的SYB学员和毕业生交流过之后，我们希望他们在回到家乡后能继续与身边的人分享他们在这里的经历。我们期待能在未来与他们保持联系，也希望有更多河南的孩子申请来到海上青焙坊！
