Support for Ukrainian Chess Players

The US Chess community is concerned about our family of Ukrainian chess players as they experience rapidly deteriorating conditions in many parts of their invaded country. Some have immediate needs that are exacerbated by the state of emergency. Those wishing to flee a frightening situation are limited by health or family issues, gridlock, fuel-purchase restrictions, and blocked roads.

We have received a generous $10,000 commitment from the Kasparov Chess Foundation (KCF) to seed this campaign. If you wish to join the KCF in supporting the Ukrainian chess community, please donate today. Gifts received through GoFundMe will be sent by US Chess, in collaboration with our chess associates in Ukraine, to those who are in need. We welcome your support in any amount.

Thank you for your gift - it will make a difference for those who need it most. Gens una sumus
