Panthers’ Bradley Bozeman, wife thankful for foundation’s impact on Charlotte

CHARLOTTE — It didn’t take long for Bradley and Nikki Bozeman to make themselves at home in the Carolinas. The two made an impact quickly through their foundation, The Bradley and Nikki Bozeman Foundation, which they founded in 2018, then launched in the Charlotte region last year.

“To be able to grow like it has here has been amazing,” said Bradley Bozeman.

Through the foundation, the Bozemans have been teaming up with Second Harvest Food Bank and Charlotte-Mecklenburg police, among other community partners.

On-duty officers deliver food packed into custom boxes, covered with links to additional resources for children and families who need it most.

“At different accidents or situations, to be able to go to those boxes and hand those out to the kids, to sit down and have a normal conversation, to break the tension in there,” Bradley Bozeman said.

In the past year, not only has their influence grown, so has their family.  Bradley and Nikki Bozeman also welcomed their son, Brody.
