The Stella Maris School Medan Damansara and Cheras Chess Academy raised RM10,000 for Yayasan Chow Kit by organising the Stella Maris Yayasan Chow Kit Charity Chess Match, on Sunday the 29 September 2019.

The chess match was officiated and launched by the right Honourable YB Tuan Gobind Singh Deo, Malaysia's Minister of Communications and Multimedia.

The minister applauded the effort of the organisers and the chess community for coming together and raising much needed funds for the less fortunate. He also hoped that more people will follow this good example and help alleviate the problems of the less privileged especially the children.

At the fundraiser, chess master Collin Madhavan and eight junior chess champions played a Simultaneous Chess match against 88 participants at the premises of Stella Maris School Medan Damansara, Kuala Lumpur. The participants consisted of students from the school and members of the public.

The match lasted over four hours.
