ABOUT NGOZI & NNF

On February 16, 2018, Ngozi Peter Nwaneri ("Ngozi") passed away at the age of 30. Ngozi was a loyal friend, brilliant scholar, passionate thinker, athlete, musician, comedian, family man, and visionary - truly ahead of his time. In Ngozi's honor, NNF was created to support black enterprise and African development through social outreach and economic empowerment.

Amongst Ngozi's many passions were community and the game of football. In his high school days, Ngozi was a star running back and linebacker on Springbrook Hgih School's varsity football team from 2003 - 2005. In Ngozi's memory, it's only fitting to bring the community back to Springbrook to raise money from such a great cause.

NNF is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. For more information, visit www.rememberingngozi.org.
