CU-NSS

Chitkara University NSS Unit Cell is the only unit working for the welfare of the University as

well as the society. Its hardworking volunteers work with only one motive that is,” Not Me,

But You”. This club provides the students a fair chance to participate in the noble cause of

helping the needy. This club is divided into four different clubs i.e. Sankalp, Unnati, Prayas,

Umang. All these groups are meant to work in four different manners. These are explained

as follows:-

Sankalp

In this NSS volunteers teach the slum children after college hours. The noble work of Each

One Teach One seems to come true seeing the dedication with which students take out

some time out of their busy academic schedule and use it for the betterment of the society.

Being a part of this club gives our volunteers a chance to get aware of the difficulties that

children of our society from financially weak families are facing. Our volunteers and the

slum children share a very loving relationship.

Unnati 

In this the volunteers give the slum children of middle age, computer education. They teach

the children how to use a computer, typing, and various keys in it etc. It not only gives the

volunteers a chance to interact with them but also gives a golden chance to the slum

children to enhance their knowledge. The club attempts to provide them with facilities in

education that they lack otherwise.

Prayas

In this our team organises various medical camps for the welfare of the society like, Dental

Camp, Blood Donation Camp, and Eye Check up Camp. The scheduled day the whole team

puts in effort to make the event a success. A team of doctors is invited for the check up.

People from the campus and nearby areas attend the camp.

Umang 

Under this part of the club our team organises various events that provide our volunteers

fair chance to get face to face with the problems that our society as well as its various

generations are facing.  Events like cloth donation, slipper donation, Shramdaan and rallies

regarding awareness are organised.  In cloth donation and slipper donation selected

volunteers visit the village area for the donation. Our team organises various rallies in which

we visit the nearby slum area where with help of reciting slogans, posters, personally

meeting the people and giving pamphlets we spread awareness. Another event called

Shramdaan is organised in which the volunteers take the initiative to clean the area in the

campus as well outside the campus.
