The greatest gift we can give our children is the ability to make good decisions

DONATE

Renaissance Knights is a 501(c)(3) organization that is committed to making chess an important part of our community. We provide affordable, fun and high quality chess education through school and community based programs. The most important aspect of our mission is to develop in-school and after-school scholastic chess programs. Chess teaches valuable lessons for developing students like problem solving, critical thinking, spatial awareness and goal setting. 

 

We are funded annually by contributions from corporations, foundations and private individuals, and rely on raising funds annually to sustain and expand our service.  Without your continued generosity it would not be possible to provide these powerful educational programs.

 

We look to you during this critical time to ensure that our programs will reach underserved students in our participating Chicago Public Schools. Will you make a tax-deductible donation now to help us fulfill our promises to these deserving students?

 

If you'd like more information about us, our programs, or if you'd like to support our cause with a financial contribution, please call us at 847-526-9025, or e-mail renknights@aol.com
