Training people who have missed out on employment in the catering industry

La Table de Cana is a national network of 9 work-integration companies spread across France. These companies are all independent of each other. Most have been in existence for over 15 years, with the first one opening its doors in 1985 in Antony on the initiative of a Jesuit priest who wanted to help the homeless back into stable, rewarding employment.

Thanks to you and your support, La Table de Cana Valence was able to open its doors this year! We currently employ 1 manager on a permanent contract and two people on work integration schemes. But this is just the beginning! Thanks to you, our other supporters and our customers, we plan to operate with 7 to 8 people on work-integration schemes. Eventually, this will mean around ten people a year will be trained in the kitchen trades and will be able to find work again!

This great project is still in its infancy! And to make it work, we still need your help! Thank you for all the help you've already given us.

La Table de Cana Valence served its first sit-down meal last week! A great experience for our employees in integration who experienced the fire and the stress of the heat stroke. What a joy to see a tear of pride on their faces when the whole room applauded them at the end of the meal! Cream of white asparagus, green asparagus and parmesan potato chips for starters, Fillet of sea bream with vanilla sauce and seasonal vegetables, and a pistachio cream Financier to finish off the meal. We'll let you be the judge!
