In Jersey City, like many urban areas across the country,
school age children are adversely affected by issues of violence, substance abuse, crime, academic deficiency and lack of
educational support systems and recreational outlets.
Not only are such conditions physically dangerous, but they
affect the self esteem, sense of security and the developmental process.
This, in turn, affects a child's ability
to learn, perform well academically and develop character.
The Kings Knight Chess Club, a nonprofit organization, offers children
the opportunity to increase their mental ability and have fun at the same time, learning the game of chess.
The Kings Knight Chess Club (K.K.C.C.) has established
scholastic chess programs at the:
--Jersey City Community Charter School,
--Jersey City Police Department
- Safe Haven Program,
--New Jersey City University Pre-College Program,
--New Jersey City University Kids
Saturday Semester,
--It Takes A Village Youth Program,
--PS#15 School,
--Liberty Charter School, and
--And More To Come.
Also on Mondays, from 6pm to 7:30pm, this truly unique Chess Club offers lessons to
members at:

The Kings Knight Chess Club, founded by Bobby Stewart, teaches over
400 young people weekly and the numbers of interested youth are growing.
Our Chess Club goal is to establish chess
centers to educate and motivate interested youth through chess, and to promote positive thinking as a competitive activity
by creating an environment in which cognitive skills are rewarded.
Chess Makes Kids Smarter.
As a non-profit organization,
the Kings Knight Chess Club depends on grants, related funding, contributions and donations, which empowers this effort to
continue to reach out to as many young people as possible and to help us defray the costs of equipment, awards and needed
materials.
