ChessKid Grants For 2023-2024
ChessKid is partnering with the Indermaur Chess Foundation to give 100 public elementary schools in North Carolina free ChessKid Gold accounts for all their students.
We have 100 counties in North Carolina, so we would love to have a school in each county receive one of these grants! We have been using ChessKid for years in school chess programs, so we are excited to promote this opportunity and help distribute ChessKid to more North Carolina schools.
—Mark Indermaur, President of Indermaur Chess Foundation
