Tajveer Grewal
As a young community leader, I am passionate about bringing people together to promote health, education, and cultural connection. I currently serve as President of the UBC Bhangra Club, where I work with a dedicated team to organize events that celebrate Punjabi culture while raising funds for charitable causes. I am also involved with the Punjabi Community Health Association, where I help support initiatives that improve health awareness in the Punjabi community. In addition, I founded the Abbotsford Smile Foundation in high school, which distributes care packages to individuals experiencing homelessness. Through these experiences, I have developed a strong commitment to service, collaboration, and creating meaningful impact in my community.
