My Project

My students are special because even though they have many obstacles to their learning journey, they still both have the desire and make the time to attend chess club.

Please help my students enjoy chess by providing them chess sets!

Without your help we may not be able to formally continue chess club and all the surrounding activities.

Chess is a wonderful confidence builder and creates a community in school that can be found nowhere else. Students are always proud of their learning and accomplishments in progressing in the game.

Thank you for your generosity!
