Equality in a Box (Salesforce Chandigarh Developer Group)
 
Salesforce wanted to provide an equal pathway for everyone to land a top job in the workforce of the future. Today, over 7 million badges have been earned, and people from all walks of life have been inspired to transform their careers. But there’s still a major equality gap in technology caused by many factors including the lack of accessible education. BAM! It’s time to bring education and opportunity to everyone. It’s time to Be A Multiplier.           
 
For every meetup, we work hard and yet sometimes people don't show up.
