Opportunities for Youth on National and International Platforms
Through the ‘Youth Socialgram Foundation,’ hundreds of young people from various states have participated in national and international events. Youth associated with the organization have taken part in several national celebrations, including the Republic Day Parade, and many members have even had the opportunity to meet the President of India. Recently, some of the organization’s young members also participated in events linked to the World Youth Festival held in Russia.
Yogesh Chaudhary, the founder of the organization and a recipient of a Presidential Award, stated that there is no shortage of talent among the youth; what they need is the right opportunity and a platform. The organization strives to ensure that the nation’s youth get opportunities to showcase their talent on national and international stages, enabling them to play an active role in nation-building.
Co-founder Amit Bhardwaj added that the organization is consistently working to connect young people with new opportunities, gain recognition for their talents, and develop their leadership capabilities. The participation of youth on ‘National Unity Day’ (Rashtriya Ekta Diwas) serves as a significant occasion to convey a message of the country’s diversity and unity.
