As part of the social component of the grant, he decided to organise pizza-making masterclasses. These sessions primarily benefit children but are also open to adults and refugees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea was inspired by his own son, who, fascinated by his father\u2019s work, said, &#8220;Dad, I want to do it too!&#8221; This sparked Cristian\u2019s desire to teach other children how to make pizza and enjoy the cooking process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Uniunea European\u0103 sus\u021bine antreprenoriatul social \u00een Moldova\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YDSXc_4WXaU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To date, ten masterclasses have been held. &#8220;During each session, we offer both paid and free options for vulnerable social groups, which helps us increase our visibility while filling us with positive emotions,&#8221; Cristian shared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cristian Voin\u0103 aims to give everyone the chance to learn, experience, and enjoy the art of cooking, regardless of age or social status. A small fee is charged for the masterclasses; however, for children from a placement centre in Cahul municipality, the activity has been offered free of charge.The grant was awarded through the project &#8220;Promoting the Concept of Social Entrepreneurship in Cahul District&#8221;, funded by the European Union.<strong><br><\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cristian Voin\u0103, aged 31, has been working in the field of public catering since 2011.
