From Athens, GA to Lagos ✈️

It was a true honor to host @lifethegriot , the founder of @chessandcommunity, who traveled all the way from the U.S. to join us. Together, we share a mission to empower youth through chess training, community engagement, and civic empowerment.

Through their generous donation, @chessandcommunity has been instrumental in helping us lay the groundwork for introducing our champions to the exciting worlds of virtual reality and machine learning.As we count down to the 12th Annual Conference of @chessandcommunity, we are excited to unveil our first-ever cultural exchange program!Ten of our champions will travel from Nigeria to the U.S. in 2025 to actively participate in the conference as major stakeholders and contributors.

This cultural immersion will provide our young leaders with a unique opportunity for global youth engagement.Stay tuned here and follow @chessandcommunity for updates on this incredible journey and learn how YOU can get involved in equipping our youth to become leaders in their communities and beyond.

A heartfelt thank you once again to @lifethegriot for your support and collaboration. Together, we are shaping a brighter future!📷: @thefolajimy#ChessInSlumsAfrica #UnveilingRoyaltyInEveryChild #ChessinNigeria#TundeOnakoya
