About us

Our Founder

Tangi L. Greene

My journey has been a symphony of highs and lows. It is filled with moments of joy and challenges that tested the very fabric of my being. As a single mother of two beautiful daughters, I faced setbacks that threatened to derail my path.

One of these challenges was an unexpected sickness that forced me to take months of leave from my career. During this time, I battled a persistent fear that all I had fought so hard to achieve would disappear right before my eyes.

Yet amidst the chaos, I found solace and strength in the unflinching support of my daughters, Sierra and Katlyn. Sierra’s pursuit of her basketball dreams and Katlyn’s unshakable commitment to her studies at Wingate University served as beacons of hope in my darkest hours. My daughters are my constant reminder of the enduring strength found in perseverance and determination.

A Purpose Found

As tough times faded away and a new beginning emerged, I understood that my journey wasn’t just about my own challenges. It is about giving back to others—a combination of compassion, fortitude, and a firm determination to improve people’s lives.
From these experiences, I started The Tangi L. Greene Transverse Myelitis Foundation, a place of hope for families dealing with Transverse Myelitis.
Rooted in my own journey and fueled by a burning desire to provide aftercare support to families facing similar circumstances, the foundation became a tangible expression of my mission to make a meaningful impact.
