Chess for a Cause Tournament
Pansy Homecare proudly presents its inaugural “Chess for a Cause Tournament”, a fun and purpose-driven event to raise critical funds for Alzheimer’s care, support, and research through the Alzheimer’s Association.
🧠 Why Chess?
Chess isn’t just a game—it’s a powerful tool for mental stimulation. It strengthens memory, concentration, and problem-solving—all functions deeply affected by Alzheimer’s. This event unites the fun of the game with a meaningful cause.
