Chess
At Promoting Queens, we believe chess is a great tool for empowerment. Our programs leverage the game of chess to develop critical thinking, resilience, and leadership skills. By teaching girls and women to play chess, we help them build the confidence and strategic mindset needed to succeed in all areas of life.
