Event Description

Honoring the Power of Women in Diplomacy and Global Affairs

Join us for a special First Fridays social mixer in celebration of International Women’s Day, as we honor the resilience, leadership, and global impact of women in diplomacy and international affairs.

On April 20, 2024, Onakoya set a Guinness World Record by completing a 60-hour chess marathon in New York's Times Square. This event not only surpassed the previous record of 56 hours but also raised significant funds to support educational initiatives for underprivileged children in Africa.

Beyond his organizational work, Tunde Onakoya serves on the board of "The Gift of Chess," a New York-based non-profit dedicated to global chess education. His efforts have garnered international recognition, including features on CNN's African Voices and other prominent media outlets.

Tunde Onakoya's journey from the slums of Lagos to international acclaim exemplifies the transformative power of resilience, education, and community engagement.
