The Youth Inc Celebration Gala honoring Chess in the Schools on November 13th was a huge success thanks to you, our donors! The night was filled with chess, dancing, and celebrating CIS along with 9 other NYC nonprofits!
We’ve already surpassed our goal but that doesn’t mean we can’t raise more for our kids — click here to donate and share until December 13th!
To everyone who joined us at the Grand Hyatt and to those who supported us from afar, THANK YOU!
