Autism Inclusion

The 2026 Greater LA School Chess League tournament in the Greater Los Angeles area raised nearly $7,000 for FIDE's Infinite Chess Project, which teaches chess to children with autism and developmental disabilities. Organized by the Kindness On Board Foundation and co-hosted by Diamond Bar High School Chess Club, the event saw participation grow to 46 teams from 32 schools. The tournament highlighted community support and earned the foundation a FIDE Social Chess Award.
