悠閑閣餐廳 (Chinese only)

在20年前,香港經歷沙士, 2004年失業率高,經濟受疫情影響,青年畢業冇工可做,機構開創「青年企業發展Teen 地」,為年青人開辦個人的社會企業培訓。2007年再度經濟蕭條,青年企業發展也停滯不前。當時屯門天水圍許多家庭遇到困境。適逢「伙伴倡自強社區協作計劃」邀請寫計劃書,我們就以「婦女當自強」計劃,希望協助弱勢婦女投入社會工作,以就業形式賺取生活費,比領取綜援更有尊嚴。

教婦女釣魚技巧還是派魚充飢?那婦女如何當自強?一向以來婦女以家庭為主,沒有學歷及新來港婦女更難找工作。但我們就以她們煮飯的技能,以營辦飲食生意來協助她們投入勞動市場,以槓桿原理,希望帶來更多社會效益。
