Help me give my students more chess sets. I am the leader of the chess club at my school and we only have 2 chess sets and about 24 students.

My Project
I plan to use these chess sets for my chess club. I accidentally got my students chess crazy and now they love playing chess. It motivates them to finish their work and behave in other classes. I have supplied 2 chess sets, but with more students interested, it simply isn't enough and another teacher talked me into doing this. Seems like a great website so far. We are a low income school, so most students don't have a chess set, and while playing online is an alternative, there is nothing like playing chess face to face with someone
Nearly all students from low‑income households
