Ten years into a successful nursing career in India, Trupti decided to move to Canada. She was looking for a better future for her family and the opportunity to advance in her profession.

Trupti, a seasoned nurse from India, faced challenges upon moving to Canada. Despite a decade of experience, she couldn't practice without a Canadian license. After working in a factory and as a caregiver, Trupti pursued her Registered Practical Nurse (RPN) certification. However, financial constraints threatened her dreams. A Windmill loan provided crucial support, funding her courses at George Brown College. With determination and Windmill's assistance, Trupti completed her education, obtained her RPN license, and secured a nursing position in Etobicoke, embodying perseverance and the impact of targeted support.
