Overview 海上青焙坊概况

Shanghai Young Bakers (SYB) provides a fully-sponsored French & Asian bakery training to disadvantaged Chinese youth. Due to the growing demand of bread on the Chinese market, SYB graduates easily find a stable, qualified job after graduation and pull themselves out of the poverty cycle.

Give an orphan some bread, you feed him for one day;
teach him how to bake, you feed him for a lifetime!

At Shanghai Young Bakers, we are not only doing charity. By giving disadvantaged youth the opportunity to learn a valuable skill, we empower them to lead independent lives and help others in return.

Our Team

SYB is operated by a dynamic team of French, Chinese and international employees and volunteers. It is run as a joint programme between Chi Heng Foundation and Shanghai Charity Foundation.
