Everything went GREAT! Thank you so much! The food was excellent. The best that we’ve had. I walked around during lunch and asked folks if they were enjoying it, and everyone just lit up and said how delicious it was. I also really appreciated that we pretty much had a zero waste meal. We collected all the compostables, and I put them in my yard waste container.

Please share my appreciations with the whole MIJAS crew. Also, some people asked me for your contact info so that they could use MIJAS for their next events. Should I pass along this email address?

I look forward to continuing to work with MIJAS.

With gratitude,

Rebeca Potasnik, Executive Director

Dear MIJAS,

Thank you for catering our volunteer luncheon. It is something truly rare and wonderful to offer delicious and healthy food to a large group of people who may eat diets that are gluten-free,vegan or have other dietary concerns. Your food allowed us to share a group meal without exception and that was very special!  Also, because the catering was so affordable, we will be sure to call on you in the future.

As a non-profit agency manager, I am committed to supporting the noble work of organizations which honor empowerment. I truly admire the work and mission of MIJAS and look forward to working with you again soon.

Jill Joanis, LMHC, Program Manager

The majority of the women who founded MIJAS were themselves victims of domestic violence and now want to help other women going through a similar situation by providing support, job training and a safe environment where they can be themselves.

MIJAS is a job training program for women that are struggling due to domestic violence reasons. Through working and learning new job skills and abilities, MIJAS is a space where women can become empowered and increase their self-esteem in order to provide for their families and, in turn, become self sufficient members of the community.
