Chess-in-the-Schools is a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to improving academic performance and building self-esteem among inner- city public school children.

We are currently seeking mentors for the upcoming fall 2013-2014 year. You do not need to know how to play the game of Chess.
Time commitment is two hours, two to three times a month from September - January.
