Young Kings & Queens Are Our Future

By stepping in early in to the lives of young people we use chess and other community activities to model peace, strength, and responsibility.  

As Seen On

Working Everyday To Strengthen Our Community

Working with Youths of all ages

Chess improves cognitive skills concentration, problem solving, decision making and more. Our youth gain confidence and self-worth.

Community Leaders

A great benefit of the Young Kings and Queens Chess club is the inclusion of community leaders in the events we host. There is never a lack of inspirational men and women to build relationships with our youth.

Working With Our Seniors

We care about all parts of our community. What speaks more to our community than the seniors who paved the way for us? Chess provides the same benefits for them as it does for our young people.

Anti Violence Initiatives

We aim to educate our young kings and queens about the dangers of violence in our community. Keeping them away from that life by providing a solid outlet. And we are always supported by those working to keep us safe.

My name is Goodwin I’m a single parent father with two kids. I met Romeo three years ago while playing in the park with my son and daughter. He approached me to tell me about his events. He ask me was these my kids and I reply that I was a single parent. First thing he said was he admired me for stepping up to the plate because we’re living in a society where men is not recognized as dads but father’s. I appreciate what he said and we been in contact with each other since then. He taught my children and help me to become a better man through interactions and conversations. God Bless him!
