今年是雅高酒店集团与海上青焙坊（Shanghai Young Bakers）合作的第五年。从2013 年开始，雅高践行企业社会责任，与海上青焙坊的职业培训项目进行合作，向中国超过150 名贫困青少年和青年提供支持。
海上青焙坊从2008 年开始为青少年和青年无偿提供为期一年的法式烘焙培训。在这个项目中，受资助的青少年和青年可以亲身体验、学习餐饮行业的专业技艺，学习法式面包和甜点制作，西式面点制作等生活技能。海上青焙坊于2013 年成立烘焙中心，在过去的五年中，雅高基金会（Solidarity AccorHotels）共为这一项目提供了超过94,000欧元的资金支持。
雅高基金会董事总经理Christine de Longevialle 表示：“雅高基金会成立于2008 年，旨在支持贫困人群，为他们提供持续的培训和学习机会，从而改善他们的社会经济地位。我们的首要任务是通过培训项目，让贫困人群有机会接受职业教育，获得工作机会或者进行创业。”
迄今为止，来自海上青焙坊的超过35 名学员在雅高旗下多家酒店内获得了实习机会，其中15 名学员正式入职上海虹桥雅高美爵酒店、上海斯格威铂尔曼大酒店、上海中星铂尔曼大酒店、上海索菲特海仑宾馆和上海虹桥新华联索菲特大酒店。
雅高酒店集团大中华区首席运营官莫力（Michel Molliet）表示：“海上青焙坊项目让我们有机会培养这些来自贫困环境的年轻人才同时也体现了我们的企业社会责任。我很高兴我们的酒店能够从项目启动之初就为其提供支持，同时也很欣喜地看到这些年轻的优秀人才经过培养，能够继续在酒店业提升自身技能，继续追求他们的梦想。”
