The PositiveNaija chess sponsorship, grant and support program assists talented and dedicated individuals in the game of chess both financially and/or non-financially.
The sponsorship program prioritises the inherent values of truth, courage, patience, creativity, discipline, responsibility, sacrifice, initiative, timing and critical thinking, which the game represents.
Beyond the above stated priorities, the program’s support/sponsorship has no financial expectation from the supported persons neither does it place any form of sponsorship limitation as they are entitled to other sponsors or support to other sponsors.
Heartfelt gratitude to kind individuals and organisations with their generous contributions for PositiveNaija to be able to undertake this sponsorship.
