In memory of
Mrs. Ngozi Kate Chukwugbo
Ngozi Kate Chukwugbo believed that education gives people choices and the opportunity to shape their own futures. As a teacher, mother of five, and woman deeply connected to her cultural heritage, she lived by this belief through her commitment to learning and care for others. Following her untimely death in a road accident, her husband established this foundation in her memory, carrying her legacy forward through practical initiatives that expand opportunities, improve lives, and strengthen communities.
Ngozi valued Igbo language, omenana, and the knowledge passed between generations. The foundation honours that inheritance through its work with young people and communities.

These values shaped Ngozi's life. They now guide the foundation's work with learners, families, and communities.
