1000 Chess Sets Reach Malawi
Dadaz Chess Academy under the leadership of Susan Namangale has now received 1000 Gift of Chess chess sets & are preparing distribution across Malawi. Over the coming months we will be distributing 1,000 chess sets (5 set gifts) across school, prisons, centers, etc.
Chess is a low-cost opportunity catalyst, helping ignite opportunity and release human potential.
The Story of Susan Namangale:
I come from a very humble beginning.. The school where you see me wearing a hat teaching chess to children is where I went to school over 30 years ago, I was going to school barefooted & lacking basics in life growing up in the village…This is my story
I pushed my way through education with lots of enduring stories in between and got myself place in society.. The first sacrifice I made was when I sacrificed my little pocket money and purchased a chess set for my club at Providence secondary school where we played chess chess.
From then on I always sacrifice my little resources to reach out to children in rural areas using chess knowing they can also have their potential unleashed like I did. the partnership with The Gift of Chess is a great milestone for me and has justified the reason why it is important to sacrifice in life as sometimes a sacrifice on the chess game is necessary for a good game. I am so emotional with excitement and thank you from the bottom of my heart as people will now know what I do has an impact in society.
I am hoping that soon I will take one of the chess sets as a gift to my country Malawi president to elaborate the power of chess as a game of strategy and what chess can do to our society and highlight our partnership with The Gift of Chess.
