Operation: Play Chess 2020-21 Campaign
Tax deductible
We are raising money again to supply magnetic travel chess sets, chess instructions and postage for deployed US troops. We are utilizing our past GOFUNDME page for this endeavor to again salute those who contributed for the 2019-20 campaign.
Anyone in the military can attest there is plenty of “Hurry up and wait time”. Learning and playing chess can help our troops pass the time. It also will help them by exercising their minds. We have teamed up with the nonprofit Help USA Troops to ensure the sets get in the correct hands. Each chess kit costs us $5.00 to send to our troops. Please help our mission to succeed with your financial support!
Our goal is to provide 1700 sets which 200 have been ordered for manufacture. We supplied 700 sets Feb 2020 and stopped due to COVID-19. These sets were delivered with care packages this year. Why 1700? This is the goal for the amount of care packages to be sent by Help USA Troops
Thank you for your support!
