Grateful to mark the closing of our mentorship program with Espoo City and IWF (Indian Women in Finland). Huge thanks to Espoo City for their support and to all the mentors and mentees from IWF for making this journey impactful. Special shoutout to the 4 mentees who secured jobs – your success is our collective victory. Remember, even if one person finds the help and support they need, it's a win for us all.
