More information & activity for the dayThe organization is looking for a small group of volunteers to conduct mock-interviews with their students and help them prepare for their upcoming job interviews. Emma’s Torch is a non-profit social enterprise based in New York City and Washington D.C. Their mission is to train refugees, asylees, and survivors of human trafficking in the culinary arts and to empower them to build meaningful careers in the culinary industry. Their students participate in a full-time, paid culinary training program in preparation for job placement. Throughout their program, they have the opportunity to learn in both a classroom and apprentice setting, thanks to their restaurant, cafe, and catering social enterprises.
