Chess tournament raised $4,400 for Teach for Armenia's emergency fund for students forcibly displaced from Artsakh and here's how it went...
On Sunday, December 3rd, All-ASA hosted a charity chess tournament for Artsakh with nearly a hundred participants from various universities' chess clubs, ASA's, and other in Los Angeles! Players of all levels and ages came together this past weekend for strategy, community, and a brighter future for the children of Artsakh. We were honored to host such a great event and look forward to hosting similar events in the future!

In honor of November being Artsakh Awareness Month, All-ASA is donating all proceeds to Teach for Armenia’s Artsakh Emergency Response fund. With your generous support, we were able to raise $4,400 to support forcibly displaced children from Artsakh.
