Opulent Alert 🚨

Please join us in giving a warm OLBA welcome to an incredible woman making real impact in our community…

💫 Sherease Alston 💫
Co-Owner, Alston House of Healing

Sherease Alston is not just an entrepreneur, she is a change agent, a visionary, and a woman on a mission. Alongside her twin sister, she has built Alston House of Healing, a sober living and transitional housing initiative that is changing lives across Baltimore City.

From Brooklyn to Maryland, Sherease has remained committed to one thing, creating her own path. She made a bold decision to stop clocking in for anyone else and instead build a legacy rooted in purpose, impact, and service.

Through her work, she is:
✨ Providing safe, structured housing
✨ Offering resources and support systems
✨ Creating opportunities for individuals and families to rebuild
✨ Helping people transition into stability, independence, and hope

As a mother, entrepreneur, and community leader, Sherease embodies what it means to lead with both strength and compassion.

Her presence in the Baltimore City Chapter is powerful, and we are excited for the impact she will continue to make within OLBA and beyond.

Sherease, we see you. We celebrate you. And we are honored to have you part of this sisterhood.

Baltimore… THIS is what leadership looks like. ✨
