Lee Brown is a woman of action, a problem solver, and a change agent. She problem-solved her own challenging experiences and transformed them into ways to help others who face similar situations.
Seeking to help others, Lee started her own non-profit more than 10 years ago. The Savannah Community American Relief Fund, or SCARF, offers assistance to families and residents of the Savannah community during challenging times to make sure they have a helping hand, so no one suffers alone or in silence when difficult life events occur.
She has established connections with large and small businesses to ensure a safe and easy back-to-school experience for the children in the community — providing uniforms, school supplies, and free hair services. Her sincere concern for young people is also expressed through her voluntarism with the Youth Police Advisory Council, where she advises and mentors youth to help YPAC promote mutual trust and understanding between Houston kids and police.
Lee also volunteers to help distribute meals and household items to senior citizens.
Thank you, Lee Brown, for making things happen.
