Richmond, VA – Dec 30, 2024 – Business, spiritual and young men from across the state of Virginia will soon come together to share their expertise on how to help, nurture, support, grow, uplift and educate young boys, teenagers and men at the Men’s Master Summit.  This inaugural event will take place in the VUU Living & Learning Center on the campus of Virginia Union University, 1500 N. Lombardy Street, Richmond, VA on Saturday, February 22, 2025.

In a volatile culture, that often puts the Black man on defense before leaving the house, while trying to understand and leverage the new world we are living in – from how social media on relationships to foundational societal changes – has lowered our expectation that life will get better and fighting for change will make a difference. One of the many goals of the Men’s Master Summit is to infuse men with the wisdom, intellect, resources and connections that will give them hope and recognize how to improve and capitalize on emerging opportunities.

With marriages on the decline, broken households on the rise, and situationships becoming more common, our society and communities are at a deficit.  Immoral behavior has become socially acceptable, and many influencers on social media boulevard are not guiding our youth differently. The Men’s Master Summit aims to tap into the culture and address these and many other topics of interest and usefulness to the attendees.

One of the timelier topics being discussed at the summit is how to help young Black boys receive the guidance, mentoring, and support they need for their development and success.  Other topics include, fatherhood, single life, responsible dating, communication, mental health, physical health, financial literacy, career goals, how to overcome fear of being a man, and feeling good about being a man.

The Men’s Master Summit aspires to become a gathering space for young and seasoned men to discuss some of the most pressing issues of the day while collaborating to solve some of the communities most complex problems resulting in one of the most transformative summits that will contribute to personal and professional growth and development.

About the Men’s Master Summit

 The Men’s Master Summit, was birthed from the vision of Sheilah Belle aka “The Belle,” a radio personality, author, minister and inspirational speaker”.  “We are living during a time where families are lacking stability and young men are no longer clear on what it means to be a man.  To help our men stop losing themselves to a society and in communities that no longer prioritize them, a radical structural reset needs to take place that will help them to become the best man they can be, mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually.  It is my hope that Men’s Master Summit can initiate that conversation and spearhead a new generation of strong men!”

The Men’s Master Summit is FREE to attend.  Lunch will be served to all registered.  To register go to www.thebellereport.com
