Hear from our supporters and volunteers

Most people think that only the mentee benefits from mentorship but it’s not true! I do a lot of work as a mentor because I’ve been fortunate in my opportunities and want to help others facing challenges I never had to.

Julianna Yau Yorgan 

Career Coach and Windmill Mentor 

I grew up with immigrant parents. While they were not educated, many of our close family friends were. I was struck, at a very young age, by how it seemed unfair that new Canadians came to Canada to pursue their dreams, often at Canada's invitation, only to find that they could not afford to reclaim their professions by paying for accreditation, courses, and exams. I aspired to kick-start momentum of Windmill's activities in British Columbia by launching BC PALs.
