Chandigarh Welfare Trust is established and driven by the sole conviction of
giving back to the city that has given us our lifeblood.
With the aspiration of
restituting this city as a model of development for other cities in India and elevating its
standing among the cities of the world, Chandigarh Welfare Trust will restore, advance, and
promote the glory of our city beautiful to the farthest corners of the world through impact
oriented programs aimed at improving the status quo on every facet of the city.
Since the past twenty years, we have been building a legacy in the name of this city beautiful, an odyssey that began with the establishment of Chandigarh Group of Colleges in 2001, followed by the foundation of Chandigarh University a decade later. We will consign the initiatives and resources of this Trust to restore, advance, and promote the glory of our city beautiful to the farthest corners of the world.
Chandigarh was planned by the famous French Architect Le Corbusier. Let us look at some of the mind-boggling stats concerning the City Beautiful:
The total population of Chandigarh is around 1.1 Million, out of which 30.62% is the Tribal population.
Chandigarh recorded close to $75.58 million worth of exports in 2020-21. With $5 bn (GSDP, Current Price), 8% (GSDP Growth Rate), $3,878 (Per Capita Income), and 70% (Share of Renewable Energy).
The City Beautiful, Chandigarh attracts 1.5 million visitors every year.
Chandigarh is the fifth largest Union Territory, covering an area of 114 sq km, which is almost 0.003% of the geographical area of the country.
In 2019-2020, Chandigarh holds the second position in terms of the Performance Grade Index.
86.05% Is The Current Literacy Rate of Chandigarh, which is on an upward trend since the 2011 population census.
The essence of Chandigarh Welfare Trust is in people's participation. We believe that unless members from the civil society are engaged in the process of developmental growth, changes brought will never be sustainable. With the same idea, we invite and encourage individuals from all walks of life to be a part of our initiatives and help us actualize the changes we have set out to bring.
Engage with the several Volunteering opportunities at CWT and open yourselves to the forbearance of giving back as you take away valuable experiences of standing up for the communities that live around you and an opportunity to get affiliated with the most farsighted philanthropic initiatives in Chandigarh.
