About the Foundation
A life worth continuing
Chief Peter Chukwu Emeka Nwankwo, 1939-2026
Chief Peter Chukwu Emeka Nwankwo, fondly known as PCN, lived 87 full years. A titled chief and father, he carried tradition in one hand and the future in the other: heavily invested in technology late into life, he wrote and published on his blog, uwankaa.com, until his final days.
When he passed in 2026, his children resolved that grief alone was not a worthy monument. The PCN Foundation is our answer: a living institution that funds and runs projects in the causes he cared about, education, community upliftment, and putting technology in the hands of the next generation.
The foundation operates in the open. Every project posts its progress publicly, and every donation, whether through Paystack or Stripe, is recorded in a public ledger anyone can inspect.
