About Us

Chess Mates enhances primary education through after-school chess programs in the Seattle area of Washington State.


 

The Chess Mates programs focus on chess as a teaching tool. Learning and playing chess helps children build future life and work skills.


 

Chess clubs meet after classes in Seattle area elementary and middle schools once a week, October through May, at the school facilities. Chess Mates provides all teaching materials, chess equipment and a trained instructor.


 

The programs are accessible to all children regardless of race, gender, physical ability, or economic situation.


 

Chess Mates is 501-c-3 non-profit organization funded by program fees and contributions from individuals, companies and private foundations
