Greenwood, Inc.’s co-founder and chairman, Ryan Glover, announced his firm’s new two-year partnership with Jackson State freshman phenom Travis Hunter. The fintech platform for the black and brown communities wanted a brand ambassador who embodied the spirit of being a “brave trailblazer,” Glover said. “I believe this is a very important partnership in the unification between Greenwood and Travis Hunter.”
Greenwood wants Hunter to start building generational wealth for his family and provide him the tools, resources, and financial education to manage via the bank. The hope is that Greenwood will empower him to manage his financial independence confidently.
Glover to HBCU Legends, “our Choose Black campaign celebrated “trailblazers” in our community who chose to make brave personal decisions that will ultimately benefit the overall community today and years to come.” He resumed, “Travis’ commitment to select Jackson State University over all other schools in the country is a testament to our Choose Black mission and why we are celebrating him as our inaugural NIL recipient.”
Hunter’s decision to attend and play football at Jackson State University for head coach Deion Sanders was heralded by most but harshly criticized by others who believe he should have selected a Power 5 program. Glover repeatedly mentioned that Hunter was brave and had a tremendous future ahead.
