History
Candid was created in May 2006 by Lisa Gu, Amber Makhani, Helen Wang, and Kae Wang. Working through summer break, the four high school students assembled the first issue of the magazine. With the help of Mandy Grewal and other students, editors sold advertisements and conducted fundraisers to cover the $5,000 cost of printing 5,000 copies.
For its second and subsequent issues, Candid expanded staff to include reporters, school representatives, graphics designers, and advertising representatives.
