If you think that you are a person who will never give up, willing to accept challenges and want to lead a better life, then do sign up as one of the participants to prove that you're brave enough to come out from your comfort zone. Mommy Jane would love to register too to improve my cooking skills for my Little Angels. Cooking now is part of our life ever since we had the Movement Control Orders (MCOs) due to Covid-19. Staying at home for 1 month plus is actually a good bonding session with my Little Angels. We learn to cook, study, play and exercise together to stay healthy and with this online cooking workshop, perhaps we could learn together and it might be our sustainability or our future income. 

Good luck to all the participants on your journey with your Mentors and Maggi in the Program Mentor Wanita Cukup Berani !
