Chess Journey Your Support Matters Campaign

I am thrilled that my son Zamian Robbetze, a Gr 10 learner at Hoërskool Kempton Park, has been selected to represent his school in the prestigious upcoming Northwest University’s prestige series schools chess tournament in Potchefstroom from 8 – 10 April 2024!

How You Can Make a Difference:

As a single parent, it is very challenging for me financially to raise the necessary funds in such a short space of time to be able to let him go, but I cannot bring myself to deprive him of the opportunity. He has been working very hard for this for the past 3 years.
