2024 Chess Supplies

2024 Chess Supplies

POST PROJECT REMARKS:

In summer of 2024, we will be visiting elementary schools in Armenia with the goal of replenishing their chess supplies. We will be donating 50 tournament chess sets to schools in various regions of Armenia.

By bringing these supplies we are enabling more children to learn and practice chess, and to think critically, and logically under pressure. Chess is a part of Armenia’s school curriculum; Armenia is the only country in the world at the moment to have chess implemented in its school system.

Our last Chess Supplies project was conducted in 2019, in the Qashatagh province in the Artsakh region of Armenia, where five schools received school supplies. In June of 2024 Empower Armenia will visit schools in the rural areas of Armenia. For previous year’s chess supplies project please visit the following links ‘2018 Chess Supplies’, ‘2019 Chess Supplies’.

For this project, donations are being raised for 50 chess sets; with a project budget of $1,045.25 CAD.
