Hardly a day goes by that we aren't subjected to headlines about youngsters getting in trouble, deep trouble. We here at 'Be Someone' mourn the loss of each and every child and share in the pain caused so many families. We truly believe if we had these children in our classroom the outcomes would have been success instead of failure. Here is a list of kids in trouble. There was a better way. Read more here.

Our Summer Strategic Leadership Chess Camp, led by Orrin "Checkmate" Hudson, is set to run from July 8 to August 2, Monday through Friday, from 10 AM to 2 PM. We provide breakfast and lunch to all participants.
We are thrilled to announce an exciting opportunity for your child to experience the transformative power of chess! Be Someone, Inc. is hosting a **FREE 3-Day Strategic Leadership Chess Camp** from **Monday, July 1st, to Wednesday, July 3rd**
Hudson is hosting a free event and bringing his life-sized chess board to the downtown Atlanta Hilton. Instead of celebrating his birthday during the Memorial Day weekend, he plans to empower young people by teaching them through the game of chess how to make strategic moves.
“Be Someone” has taught the game of chess to and counseled more than 88,000 at-risk youth with a goal of reaching a million. Chess demands creative thinking and that critical thinking ability can become the difference between a life on the streets and a life of success.
