Richmond, VA – February 23, 2024 –Over the weekend, Virginia Union University hosted the Men’s Master Summit where business and spiritual leaders from across the state, came together to share their expertise and empower, uplift, support and nurture men. This inaugural event took place in the VUU Living & Learning Center on Saturday, February 22, 2025, along with a complimentary lunch.
Men of all ages filled the Center where they had honest, courageous and pivotal conversations including the effects of social media, relationships, fatherhood, mental health, grief, financial literacy, Wills, Trust, music, mentoring and so much more.
The visionary and founder of this event, Sheilah Belle, affectionally known as “The Belle” said, “This event was birthed out of a lot of pain. However, the end result and the positive impact it will have on those in attendance as well as those who will hear about this event, is what matters. 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 are not guiding our youth any differently. If we are going to turn things around, especially in the climate we are end, we need to have the conversations now, that will make a positive difference, and I believe the Men’s Master Summit is a starting point.”

About the Men’s Master Summit
The Men’s Master Summit, was birthed from the vision of Sheilah Belle aka “The Belle,” 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!
