Our Projects
01
This project was a partnership between Sports Forward and three classmates (James Wernikoff, Tate Cohen, and William Edwards). We fundraised to build a sports recreational area in a tribal village called Chandala, near the small town Ghadchiroli, India. Chandala is a village that lacks basic needs and is filled with Naxalites (those distrustful of the government). The sports recreational area included a volleyball court, a kabbadi court, lighting, sports equipment, and some maintenance of the area (gardening, painting, and flattening the entire area).

Checkmate for Change
Join us on a mission to make a real impact in Nagpur, India! The goal of this project is to bring the joy of chess to kids in low income families. After talking with students and the principal of Channulal Navin Vidya Bhavan High School, we plan to donate many sets of chess boards and pieces while also providing a chess teacher for the whole year. We will also hold four tournaments, with scholarship awards for the winner.
