Orlaan 

Hello everyone, my name is Nang Awan Leng. I was a trainee at the Hebron Youth 
Direction Foundation for two years and completed my training in September 2024. After 
that, my family and I moved to the United States. I am currently working two part-time 
jobs at the same time, and I am able to do so thanks to the training I received from 
Hebron.

I learned all the essential skills needed in any workplace, including hospitality 
and customer service, which are valuable in every job. I also had the opportunity to 
explore various vocational fields such as baking, cooking, and coffee-making.
Because I gained basic skills in multiple fields, I am able to work in different places like 
cafés, bakeries, and restaurants. I got my job at a café thanks to my barista experience 
from Hebron, and my other job at a dessert shop because of the baking skills I learned 
there. Without the training from Hebron, I wouldn’t have been ready to start my new life 
in the United States. The time and effort I invested during my training have benefited me 
greatly, and I am truly grateful to Hebron for giving me the opportunity to be one of their 
trainees.
