We believe that chess is more than just a game-it’s a tool for developing critical thinking, leadership, and life skills. Our mission is to make chess accessible and impactful for students from diverse backgrounds.

Our programs include structured chess classes for all skill levels, competitive tournaments (district, inter-district, and free USCF-rated), online virtual classes, and a mentorship program for high school students preparing for life after graduation. We also foster a strong online community to keep students engaged beyond the classroom.

We proudly serve over 1,000 students annually, with recent tournaments hosting over 50 participants. Our team of around 40 university student coaches brings passion and mentorship to every class and event.

We believe in giving back and are open to partnering with other community organizations, schools, and volunteer initiatives. With our dedicated team, we are ready to support community projects, offer manpower, or collaborate on events to make a positive impact.

Volunteers are the heart of our organization. By joining us, you’ll help inspire young minds and strengthen communities through chess.
