Strategic storytelling and impact initiatives that brought Bobby’s off-field vision to life.
The Story
Born in Los Angeles and raised in Ontario, California, Bobby Wagner has stayed true to his roots through holiday drives, student programs, and youth initiatives. Inspired by the loss of his mother, Phenia Mae, he founded the Phenia Mae Fund, raising over $500,000 for stroke prevention and patient care in partnership with leading health institutions. He also launched FAST54, a comic book teaching families how to spot the signs of a stroke, with more than 10,000 copies distributed, and created the Tackle Everything Tour, opening doors for students in tech, venture capital, and aerospace. Wagner’s dedication has earned him three Walter Payton Man of the Year nominations, underscoring his legacy as a leader whose impact reaches far beyond football.
