"rebuilding After Beryl"

Team work

Hurricane Beryl has devastated the Caribbean, leaving thousands in dire need of immediate help. Homes are destroyed, power lines are down, and clean water is scarce. Families have lost everything, struggling for basic necessities like food and shelter. The region’s economy is in shambles, with tourism halted and agriculture ravaged. Every minute counts in this crisis. Your donation today – right now – can be the difference between life and death for those hit hardest. We urgently need funds for emergency shelter, food, water, and medical care. The situation is critical and deteriorating by the hour. Don’t wait – act now. Your generosity can save lives and help the Caribbean begin its long, difficult journey to recovery. Every dollar makes a difference. Please, donate immediately and help us respond to this catastrophic disaster.

DONATE

In disaster relief situations, donating non-perishable foods is crucial for providing immediate and sustained support to affected communities. These foods have a long shelf life, are easy to transport and distribute, and require no refrigeration or special storage conditions. Common types of non-perishable foods suitable for donation include canned goods (such as vegetables, fruits, meats, and soups), dried foods (like pasta, rice, and beans), sealed packages of nuts and trail mix, peanut butter, powdered milk, and energy bars. These items provide essential nutrients and calories to sustain individuals and families during times of crisis when access to fresh food may be limited or impossible.

“Encouraging Communities through Chess and Education”

Chess Whitts is partnered with the Sharon Wiles Foundation. Chess Whitts engages the educational and chess aspect of the foundation. We serve students through chess and educational enrichment programs. We serve individual, organizations, and business. Chess and literacy workshops are conducted to teach the game of chess and foster literacy in children and adults.

Benefits of Chess

Enhances concentration and focus: Chess requires intense concentration and focus to track the positions of the pieces, evaluate potential moves, and anticipate your opponent’s strategies. Practicing this level of focus can help improve your overall ability to concentrate and stay attentive, even in non-chess-related tasks.

Strategic thinkers, Planners, Team work, having fun

 

 

Improves problem-solving skills: Chess is a game that requires strategic thinking, planning ahead, and evaluating multiple possible scenarios. By playing chess, you develop your ability to analyze complex situations, consider consequences, and make informed decisions, which can translate to improved problem-solving skills in other areas of life.
