Hashima

Meet Hashima — Hired through Nurture Hub Edmonton

Before: Hashima arrived in Canada with a degree in microbiology and 7 years of experience but couldn't secure work because she had “no Canadian experience.” She was working two survival jobs and still couldn’t support her family.

After Nurture: Hashima trained in food production, digital tools, and customer service at the GROW Space. Within 8 weeks, she moved into paid employment through Nurture Meals — packaging, labeling, and managing online orders.

Today: She is now employed full-time with one of our corporate partners and mentors other newcomer women entering the program.
