Hello Everyone,
My name is Shantell Lewis. I am currently a culinary arts student at Metropolitan Culinary Arts Institute in Arlington, VA.
I am following my dream of becoming a professional chef. I’m passionate about food, and creating happiness through food brings me joy.
Unfortunately, the financial burden of culinary school stands between me and my dreams. I’m reaching out to humbly to request your support in the form of a donation.
Currently, I am on a bi-weekly payment plan as I attend class in the evening and weekends, while working a full-time job during the day.
Your contribution would not only alleviate my financial concerns but also would help me continue my culinary journey.
Thank you for considering being a part of my culinary aspirations.
Warm regards,
Shantell

Hi my name is Miryam, and for as long as I can remember, I have always loved cooking.
I'm 18 and I grew up in Mclean, VA and my mom is from Trinidad so I grew up going there a lot and eating all of their delicious foods.
She also cooked for the family every night growing up and tried all sorts of recipes which exposed me to so many amazing nutritious delicious foods, including Trini food, Indian food, and Danielle Walkers grain free food. I had a period of time where I had a really bad relationship with food, and it was actually content creators and food bloggers that brought me back by showing me balance, romanticizing life and food, and reminding me how delicious food is and how fun it is to try new things in the kitchen

Your generosity helps us provide scholarships for future students.
MCAI is both a for-profit post-secondary professional culinary school and a 501c3 nonprofit.
MCAI is focused on improving the food service workforce within the DC Metro area, and we are certified to operate in Virginia by the State Council of Higher Education (SCHEV) and we are an American Culinary Federation (ACF) APPROVED program candidate.
Everyone who applies is entitled to tuition remission based on the amount of donations we are able to secure. MCAI 501c3's goal is to offer the same amount of tuition remission to each student. The difference in the cost of tuition is the responsibility of the student. Tuition remission will not exceed more than $10K per student. It is completely at the discretion of the managing directors of MCAI 501c3 to determine how much will apply to each student - and it will always be in the same amount for each student.
We will in no way discriminate based on income, level of education, work history, etc.
Not all students are obligated to accept tuition remission.
