How we began
It all started when Nagaris those are spread across the world felt the need to connect to everyone with roots to Ahmednagar. Using a common social platform during the initial days, intent of the members was just to get to know each other and share their experiences. Meanwhile these connections were useful from getting simple accommodation to better job opportunities. As the members started to settle in and grow, communication reached a pinnacle. People from all the facets shared some beautiful ideas but everyone had a common link. Each one of us had a drive to create awareness of thoughtful direction by imparting knowledge and a helping hand that we have accomplished in this fast changing environment for people in our homeland.
The journey so far
Every long journey begins with one small step. Though very few Nagaris around the world have known each other for years now, we were informally connected to each other. Over the time, we realized there are quite of few others that are not connected, and can be brought under one umbrella using various technologies. This formal journey began couple of years ago in the form of Nagari WhatsApp group for USA/Canada as whatsapp group limit was 100 members.
Since WhatsApp group members limit increased to 256, we expanded our reach to other Nagari families having roots in Ahmednagar District but currently living out of India. The group now has ties to over 200 families in 22 different countries around the world.
We have families from Australia, Japan, South Korea, Europe, Middle East, Africa to Canada and USA. Interactions began with simple chats and progressed further.

What we do
The families began leveraging the expertise from the group ranging from:
1. Helping new students to get settled in USA/AUS/Europe universities
2. Helping finding internships and new jobs for students
3. Helping job change for existing professionals
4. Conducting seminars on important day-to-day-topics
5. Regional meets and greets, get to know each other
Though our primary goal was to get in touch with as many Nagaris from around the globe, the frequent interactions of the members has brought out the Giving something back feelings and this now continues to be an ongoing motto of the members. This has brought about some of the most amazing initiatives that have been undertaken by the members and implementation is in progress.

Way forward
We are committed to globally engineer our intellectual capital to allow us to interact and enhance interdependent benefits to our local civic engagement so that we may proactively embrace our overall objectives.
Buoyed by the success of some Library initiatives in villages, group members have found the inspiration to work towards similar low hanging goals and progress.
