BGaming has laid out plans to encourage chess-playing within young people in Warsaw, Poland, by pledging €10,000 to a local chess school.
Agreeing to fund the school ahead of International Chess Day on July 20, BGaming has given the contribution to The Youth Educational Centre of the Orion Fathers in Poland’s capital.
Marina Ostrovtsova, CEO at BGaming, commented: “At BGaming, we have seen how games can bring together friends and players to build communities. It is our pleasure to continue investing in the future of young people around the world and by supporting the launch of this centre, we are sure chess will unite and inspire many of them for years to come.”
The slot supplier’s donation will go towards providing more classes and equipment to young talented chess players, with some funding also going towards organising tournaments and events to attract new demographics to the game.
Andriei Molchanov, a representative of The Youth Educational Center of the Orion Fathers, added: “By investing in the development of children today, we will have a kinder and fairer society tomorrow. The mission of helping children in difficult situations is a very necessary and important thing, and today BGaming is planting seeds of goodness so that wonderful fruits will spring up tomorrow. This is a win-win cooperation.”
BGaming’s charitable donation comes as the studio’s latest philanthropic endeavour, having donated to the A7MA Galeria Institute in Brazil earlier this year to promote art and creativity within young people.
