Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Our elementary school would love to have a chess club, and I'm so excited to become part of it. As our new club begins, we would need chess sets and teaching materials to create a fun and educational space where students can build critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

With these new chess sets, our students will be able to practice their newly acquired chess skills, helping them develop strategic thinking and problem-solving skills.

These chess sets will allow our students to get an amazing hands-on experience.

Our students are eager, curious, and excited to take on new challenges. For many, this club will be their first chess experience, giving them a chance to explore, learn, and grow.

Your support will give our students access to a game that teaches lifelong skills. Please consider donating to our project, and thank you so much for making a difference!
