Thank You.
Nichelle Nichols wanted her legacy to continue after her death, and her family is excited to announce the creation of the Nichelle Nichols Foundation. The foundation will launch on December 28th on her 90th birthday, with a pre-launch planned for this fall. The foundation will carry on her legacy of inspiring the next generation to reach for the stars and guide us closer to Gene’s vision of the future. Nichelle loved her fans, and it was important to Nichelle to keep her fans connected and to work together to accomplish amazing things. Her family is excited to keep fans updated as they announce board members, board of advisers, partners, special events, and much more.
