2nd ANNUAL CHECKMATE HATE

A CHARITY “CHESS IN THE PARK” TOURNAMENT EVENT.  TAKING PLACE ON THE GROUNDS OF THE HOLOCAUST MEMORIAL AND TOLERANCE CENTER OF NASSAU COUNTY IN GLEN COVE, NY. 

CHESSanity, is teaming up with the Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County (HMTC) to launch a new initiative aimed at putting an end to hate and bigotry and promoting tolerance and respect for all people, regardless of their background or religion, as the way forward for future generations of humanity.  We hope to inspire a new generation of leaders who are committed to creating a more just and equitable world.

As part of this partnership, CHESSanity has scheduled this event that promotes the values of tolerance and inclusivity, while also donating the proceeds to support HMTC's mission to educate the public about the Holocaust and its lessons for today. We believe that through our joint efforts, we can make a real difference in the fight against hate and discrimination, and create a brighter, more tolerant future for all.
