Ambassador Dr. Chanita Foster stands as a blueprint for what it means to lead with both purpose and power.
A distinguished Social Change Philanthropist, global investor, best-selling author, and advocate for mental health, she has carved a space at the top of multiple industries—while championing underserved communities across Africa and beyond.
As the visionary founder of RockStar Global Investments, Dr. Foster is reimagining access to global markets.
Her firm connects high-net-worth clients—including former Presidents, Diplomats, and Royal Families—with investment opportunities across real estate, transportation, technology, and business services.
With an impressive portfolio that includes securing over $100 million in funding for high-profile projects, her influence reverberates across continents.
“Africa is not the future—it’s now,” she states. “And those who invest in its people, its potential, and its power are going to lead the next era of global growth.”
Dr. Foster’s impact in tourism development has been just as significant.
Appointed the International Brand Ambassador of Tourism for Zimbabwe, she’s helped spotlight the country—and others like South Africa and Equatorial Guinea—as global destinations for economic and cultural exchange.
Her innovative approach to tourism not only drives billions in value but also repositions African nations in the global economic conversation.
Philanthropy isn’t a side project for Dr. Foster—it’s part of her business model.
Through Beyond The Game, a registered nonprofit in the U.S. and an NGO in South Africa and Eswatini, she’s on a mission to transform lives at the grassroots level.
From feeding over 1,000 children daily to building schools and creating care points, her work speaks volumes about her commitment to sustainability and dignity.
One of her standout initiatives is “A Period is Not a Punishment”, an advocacy project targeting period poverty and equipping girls across Africa with menstrual care kits and education.
She’s also building a new Beyond The Game community in Eswatini that includes a Women in Farming program—empowering local women to generate income and food security.
In Ghana, her partnerships with the KJM Foundation and Kojo Jones Mensah have resulted in more than 15 clean water projects.
Her collaboration with Nigerian dignitaries such as Dr. Ramatu Tijani Aliyu and Adebayo Benjamins-Laniyi exemplifies her influence in high-level women’s empowerment initiatives across the continent.
For all her corporate success and international recognition, it’s Dr. Foster’s candid advocacy for mental health that distinguishes her as a holistic leader.
Her best-selling book, Girl I’m Not Tripping, I’m Depressed, opened up much-needed conversations around mental wellness, particularly among women of color and youth in Africa.
“Too many people suffer in silence. I made a vow to be the voice that says ‘you’re not alone,’” she says.
She has since collaborated with governments to design digital tools that reduce suicide rates and improve youth mental health outcomes.
Her advocacy earned her global acclaim, including the United Nations Global Award in 2019 and the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award—presented by Presidents Barack Obama, Donald Trump, and Joe Biden.
Through her coaching platform Peace Purpose Paid, Dr. Foster mentors aspiring leaders and entrepreneurs by helping them align personal peace, life purpose, and financial success.
The program reflects her belief that entrepreneurship starts from within and that true leadership is deeply personal.
“It’s not just about having a seat at the table—it’s about knowing your worth when you get there,” she affirms.
Her coaching is complemented by her expansion into logistics through Rockstar Transportation, a fleet-based company with over ten trucks servicing corporate giants like Amazon and medical institutions.
The venture is positioned for global expansion and further underscores her ability to pivot between sectors with ease and excellence.
From Wall Street boardrooms to rural African villages, Ambassador Dr. Chanita Foster is building a legacy that transcends industry and geography.
Her impact lies not just in what she has accomplished—but in what she makes possible for others.
Whether she’s working on policy advocacy, executing multi-million-dollar investments, or uplifting women through farming initiatives and mental health awareness, one truth remains: Dr. Foster is not just changing lives—she’s changing systems.
For Africa and the world, her message is clear: “Empowerment is the new currency. And I’m here to invest in people.”
