Chandigarh First: From Vision to Action

Hey there, Chandigarh family! Welcome to the very first blog post in our “What’s Up @ Chandigarh First?” series. We’re here to spill the tea on all the cool things we’ve been up to lately. From big dreams to exciting progress, let’s catch you up on everything Chandigarh First is all about. Spoiler alert: we’re doing some awesome stuff!

From Vision to Collective: How It All Began

Once upon a time, our co-founder Bhanupriya ran for the post of Chandigarh State President of the Indian Youth Congress. She didn’t win, but her vision was too good to stop there. She dreamed of a Chandigarh where every young mind flourishes, mental health is a priority, our green legacy is protected, and youth actively shape the future. Pretty epic, right?

Fast forward to today, and that vision has turned into Chandigarh First – a collective that’s all about tackling unemployment, prioritizing mental health, committing to sustainability, and empowering women and youth. Big goals, but we’re here for it!

Making Moves: What We’ve Done So Far

We’ve been busy bees setting the stage for some serious impact. Here are the three biggies we’re super proud of:

1. ChandigarhFirst.org: Our shiny new online marketplace is where sustainability meets creativity. Think eco-friendly products, local talent, and items that are as good for the planet as they are for your vibe. Whether it’s stylish clothing or quirky stationery, everything here reflects our love for quality and conscious living.

2. ChandigarhFirst.co.in: This is the heart and soul of our collective. It’s where we share updates, stories, and resources to keep our community connected and inspired. From blogs to events, this platform is all about YOU and us making change together.

3. The Blog: We’re super excited to have a dedicated space for storytelling, insights, and tips! This blog will cover everything from mental health and sustainability to inspiring stories of change-makers right here in Chandigarh. It’s your go-to space for staying informed and inspired.
