| Sheila Flemming-Hunter was the 24th President of ASALH. She is also the founder of the Black Rose Foundation for Children. |
She currently serves as Founder and President of The Black Rose Foundation for Children, Inc. (BRF). Founded in Daytona
Beach in 2004 by Sheila and her daughters (Alero and Ayo) the mission of BRF is to be a bridge for abandoned children,
especially children of incarcerated parents and foster children. The goal of BRF is to provide financial assistance for model
youth programs that will be replicated in such states as Florida, Georgia, North and South Carolina as well as Tennessee.
BRF is a not for profit 501(c) 3 charitable organization.
In Memphis, Tennessee, where she resides, Sheila’s philanthropic work centers on capacity building for local organizations
dedicated to empowerment for children. Through her foundation work she participates as a member of the Board of Directors
of Families of Incarcerated Individuals, Inc. and the Memphis Business Academy. In the former she is assisting the
organization in the development of an annual fund drive to support the organization’s operating budget as well as mentoring
and tutoring activities. To assist the Memphis Business Academy, a charter school for at risk children, The Black Rose
Foundation for Children has led an effort of ten other community organizations in Memphis to secure funding from the
Memphis City Schools District. The funding established the Building and Entering a Successful Tomorrow Program (“BEST”).
The program provides academic support and self-esteem activities for foster children and other children at risk. BRF
currently coordinates the Memphis Cares Mentoring Movement, an affiliate of the National Cares Movement led by the
visionary Susan Taylor, formerly of Essence Magazine.
Sheila is also an entrepreneur. In 2006, she and her husband, Robert, established Immeasurable Favor, LLC “IF”. A limited
liability company, “IF” is a corporation founded on Christian principles and is currently doing business as “Right at Home in
Home Care and Assistance” (RAH). Their company is one of 140 RAH franchises in America that provides homemaker,
companion and personal support services for people in their homes. Building on Robert’s social work career, Sheila’s
education experiences, and both administrative backgrounds, RAH is a compassionate venture helping those in need,
providing employment and contributing to the economy of the Memphis area.
Sheila believes God has so much for her to do; she remains open to his direction as she follows his light.
