Meet Cayl Andrew Franco, who has recently joined Fifty Acres in our internship program. Cayl has studied at both Monash University and University of the Philippines, and has a passion for advocacy and creating social impact. We’re very thankful to have Cayl as part of the team. We asked Cayl some questions about his experiences. Q. Why did you choose to study communications? Cayl's answer: The things we say can either make or break situations that can enhance the lives of other people. I have always been vocal in advocating for a better life for humankind in all sectors of society, especially the marginalised and the oppressed. Q. What’s been your favourite thing you have worked on so far at Fifty Acres? Cayl's answer: Working with Fifty Acres helps me to be more passionate in sparking impactful conversations for the greater good of society. I believe that everyone, regardless of their background and current circumstances can join forces and pave the way for a better community that is just, fair, and catering to the needs of its people. Q. What’s something you are looking forward to learning more about? Cayl's answer: I look forward to gaining deeper knowledge on how I can continue to be an influence to others with my passion for both communicating and advocating for a better society.

Reflecting on my journey so far... As I look back on my time at Redeemer's University, I'm grateful for the opportunities that shaped me into the professional I am today. From internships at Loshes Chocolate and Redeemer's University Radio Station to serving as a Protocol and Welfare Officer, I've learned the value of hard work, teamwork, and dedication. With my degree in Political Science and a passion for making a difference, I'm excited to see where my next chapter takes me! Let's connect and see how we can grow together! #careerjourney #newchapter #letsconnect"

Making sure the kitchen is tidy by putting things away, helping to clean the fridge and putting the food away in the fridge. What things have you found difficult on your rotation? I have found it difficult to learn how to move things safely I now a trolley to help me. I also found folding the napkins quite tricky as its quite fiddly so I asked for help with this. Setting the tables up quickly has also been hard. What skills have you learnt on your rotation? I have learnt about Customer Services and Product presentation and improved my skills in both of these areas. My listening skills have gotten better by listening to the staff and residents.
