​

Our single father grew up with a challenging home life. As the oldest of 3, with no father and an addicted mother, he took it upon himself to make sure his younger siblings made it to school and were fed. This experience developed his passion for cooking.

 

Throughout his years as a cook, he researched and developed his own brand of seasoning that was on display at the restaurant where he worked for several years. Due to extenuating circumstances, he recently parted ways with that restaurant, but has secured a new cook position through an interview opportunity arranged by Givingmas.

 

"Dad's the Cook's" pride and joy is his 13 year old daughter. She is a well rounded student that participates in drama, band, and sports.

His main goals are to learn about credit repair and entrepreneurship in order to offer her a better childhood and life than his own.

• Dedicated father

• Due to circumstances, he is facing challenges

• Employment Assistance

• Strategy to help with daughter's higher education goals

• Developing a plan to become a successful entrepreneur and learn how to

      expand distribution of his seasoning line.
