    Description

    In this episode we interview Raghav Aggarwal, Founder and President Chess For Trees. Chess For Trees’s mission is to create a chess community that extends past the board, making one move at a time to checkmate climate change. 
    We host chess tournaments and offer chess coaching to raise money to plant trees and also support young chess players in their journey. We also partner with environmental nonprofits and help them with their events.
