On Sunday, May 24, 2026, the atmosphere at Ineza Foundation was full of joy and laughter as children gathered to spend a special day with Dan and Candice Casey from the Wyoming Chess Club, USA. What began as a simple introduction to chess soon turned into a memorable experience filled with learning, friendship, and fun.
Sitting together around the chess boards, the children listened carefully as Dan and Candice explained the rules of the game. At first, many of them had never played chess before, but with patience and encouragement, they quickly became excited to learn how each piece moves and how every move requires thinking ahead. Soon, the room was filled with concentration, smiles, and cheers as the young players began challenging one another.
Beyond chess, the day was also filled with different games and activities that brought everyone together. The children laughed while playing interactive group games, running, singing, and sharing moments of teamwork and creativity. The visitors joined in wholeheartedly, making the children feel valued, loved, and confident.
One of the most touching moments of the day came when everyone gathered to share food together. Sitting side by side, the children, staff, and guests enjoyed a warm meal while exchanging stories, smiles, and conversations. It was more than just sharing food it was a moment of connection, kindness, and unity.
By the end of the visit, the children had gained much more than chess skills. They learned about patience, confidence, teamwork, and friendship. Dan and Candice’s visit left lasting memories at Ineza Foundation, reminding everyone that small acts of care and learning can inspire young minds and build brighter futures.
