2016 Go Red For Women Chair
Chi Chi Okoroafor, Premier Cardiovascular Center
Mrs. Chi Chi Okoroafor is the Practice Administrator and wife of cardiologist Dr. Kingsley Okoroafor, MD from Premier Cardiovascular Center in Fayetteville, NC. She currently serves on the Founders’ Advisory Board for the Fayetteville Ladies Power Lunch (FLPL), a local networking organization that hosts a quarterly luncheon and expo event for female professionals in the area. She got involved with Go Red for Women after hearing about it at one of their quarterly events from the FLPL Director, Karla Allen. Understanding the alarming statistics among women regarding cardiovascular disease, she quickly gained enthusiasm about the local movement. A mother of four and busy professional herself, she was resolute on making time to give back to the community and this was a perfect fit for her passion. She is the 2015-16 chair as well as 2016-2017 co-chair. Her vision, as she spearheads the campaign during this milestone year of the 5th annual affair, is to grow the Go Red Wellness Expo and Luncheon to a mega event in Fayetteville, with hundreds of women in attendance. We are so grateful for her leadership and passion.
