Checkmate Strategies

My niece, Mercy Gayle, recently had the honor of representing Fletcher High School at a four-day Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Program in Tallahassee, Florida.
She came home from the hoby seminar inspired, encouraged, and changed. In her essay about the experience, Mercy wrote about gaining confidence, learning to speak up, listening to others, serving the community, and realizing that leadership is not about being perfect — it is about growing, helping others, and using your voice for good.

Mercy has an opportunity to attend the HOBY World Leadership Congress in Washington, D.C. in late July, where she will meet young leaders from across the uniteed states and other countries.

Mercy is trying to raise $2,500 so that she can attend the HOBY World Leadership Congress.
We project that this will cost $1,999 for the seminar registration fee, plus roundtrip airfare. Last week, we raised close to $1000!

Any donation — large or small — would be deeply appreciated and will help Mercy continue her leadership journey.

Thank you for supporting Mercy Gayle and investing in a young leader with a bright future. ❤️
