When I think of Soror Rosie Allen-Herring, words like forward-thinker, visionary, compassionate leader, and loving sister immediately come to mind. As the Immediate Past Eastern Regional Director, she didn’t just lead—she walked with us. As a newly chartered International Chapter navigating uncharted waters, Soror Rosie made sure we never felt alone. From the very beginning, she ensured we were not only included but fully equipped and informed on how to conduct the business of Delta with excellence and integrity. Her open-door policy wasn't just a phrase—it was her practice. Whether we needed guidance, clarification, or encouragement, she was just a phone call away, regardless of the time zone. She has a deep and clear understanding that being an international organization means we often have to do things a little differently. She embraced that difference and uplifted it. She made it a priority to include every international chapter, recognizing that inclusion isn't just about presence—it's about voice, representation, and respect. What sets her apart is that she didn’t just connect with us virtually—she showed up. She ensured every chapter had an opportunity to meet with her in person, investing the time and energy to truly know the Sorors and the communities we serve. That kind of commitment is rare and powerful. As National First Vice President, I am confident that Soror Rosie will be transformative. Her leadership will not only strengthen our sisterhood—it will elevate our programs and reaffirm what it truly means to be an International Sisterhood. She doesn’t just talk about inclusion, compassion, and visionary service—she lives it. And with her at the helm, I know the future of Delta is in strong, loving, and capable hands. With pride, with love, and with unwavering support, I stand with Soror Rosie Allen-Herring. Deidra White President, Arabian Gulf Alumnae Chapter
It is with great joy that I write this testimony in honor of my past Regional Director, Soror Rosie Allen-Herring. Serving under her leadership was truly an honor and a blessing. Her vision, grace, and unwavering dedication to our sisterhood set a powerful example for all of us. She led with integrity, compassion, and a genuine love for service that inspired those around her to rise to their fullest potential. What made her leadership especially impactful was her attentiveness and responsiveness. She was always present—listening, addressing concerns, and ensuring every voice was heard. Her commitment to communication was unmatched, consistently keeping all chapters informed and engaged, especially our international chapters. She made sure no one ever felt left out or overlooked, and her efforts created a strong sense of unity across the region. Her ability to balance strength, empathy, and accessibility made her not only an exceptional leader but also a true sister in every sense of the word. The impact she made during her tenure will be felt for years to come, and I am forever grateful for the opportunity to witness and learn from her incredible leadership.

Rosie Allen-Herring is truly a Delta’s Delta. For years I observed her as she led from various positions within our organization at the chapter, regional, and national levels. In 2020, after we were both elected to serve our respective regions as Regional Directors, I had the opportunity to work closely with Rosie as we navigated the unprecedented world of “Pandemic 19 leadership,” with all its challenges and unknowns. During the past five years that Rosie and I worked together, I have been consistently impressed by her dedication, commitment, integrity, cerebral agility, and unconditional love of others. Soror Allen-Herring’s commitment to excellence, inclusivity, critical and strategic thinking, and results-oriented, is particularly noteworthy. She is fair and transparent and does not shy away from making difficult decisions or celebrating small successes. I witnessed her tireless work ethic as she led the Eastern Region, with not one chapter left behind. Often while attending Board Meetings or other training sessions, Rosie would schedule meetings as early as 4:00 a.m. EST with her international chapters, providing them with the same energy, time, and attention that chapters in the States received. That is an example of commitment at its best. Articulate and poised, Rosie has experience in interpreting our governing documents, and presenting training to chapter leaders and members, while exercising good and sound judgment. She can facilitate productive dialogue between diverse groups, guiding them to effectively resolve and dissolve complex issues. A proven leader in her profession, in the community, and in Delta, Soror Rosie is not new to this thing called leadership, she is true to it. She is prepared and equipped to lead us to the next level. Her vision is clear and she has never unrolled her sleeves. Rosie stands ready to serve with high ideals preserved. She loves her creator, her family, and sorors without question. With a proven track record of impeccable work ethic, extensive Delta knowledge, varied leadership experiences, and a commitment to serving, Rosie is the ideal candidate for First National Vice President of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. She is a Delta’s Delta.
I am excited to support Soror Rosie Allen-Herring as our next National 1st Vice President. Ten years ago, Soror Rosie (as she likes to be called), and I connected when she was my professional mentor for the inaugural Delta Fellows Leadership Program. As an experienced and nationally recognized nonprofit leader, she is someone I trusted and could confide in whenever I faced challenging work issues. In 2020 when Soror Rosie was elected Regional Director for the Eastern Region, I was appointed to serve on her leadership team as Connecticut State Coordinator. From 2020-2024, I had the pleasure of having a front-row seat to Soror Rosie leading our region. Soror Rosie is passionate, strategic, fair, and focused. Soror Rosie is a leader in every sense of the word and has remained faithful in her lifetime commitment to the principles, beliefs, and practices of our sorority. As the next National 1st Vice President, she will remain DEDICATED TO EXCELLENCE, she will STRENGTHEN OUR SISTERHOOD, and she is TRUSTED TO LEAD. There is no question that Soror Rosie is READY TO SERVE AND LEAD our sorority.

Soror Rosie Allen-Herring is excellence personified and the hallmark of her character is integrity multiplied by a steady work ethic that influences others to want to be better in all facets of life. Her leadership extends from the corporate world to multiple committees throughout the sorority and she is currently working tirelessly to welcome us to Washington, D.C. for the 57th National Convention as Convention Coordinator. When Soror Allen-Herring was the Eastern Regional Director, she helped us to realize our goals and make them become reality because of her steadfast commitment to us and most importantly to our sorority. I served on her Eastern Regional Leadership Team as the Co-Chair of the Arts and Letters Committee and worked closely with her on numerous projects and events. It was during this time that I saw firsthand Soror Allen-Herring’s love for Delta, her drive to always give her best, her desire to serve and be of service, and most importantly…her humility while doing it all. Soror Allen-Herring can see challenging situations as opportunities to strengthen those around her by providing guidance and empowering others to become the leaders that she knows they can be. This trait is essential for developing future leaders and ensuring the longevity of our sisterhood. When Soror Allen-Herring’s term was ending as Eastern Regional Director, our leadership team was given the charge to “Finish with Fortitude” and we all rose to the occasion because she led the charge, embodied it and re-energized us to keep going, while lifting one another to the finish line together. It was a beautiful moment in time and as tired as I was, this was the motivation I needed to dig deep to find that extra strength to bring the collective work of my committee to a meaningful close. I fully support Soror Rosie Allen-Herring for National First Vice President. I encourage everyone to review her credentials and discuss her contributions with those who have worked with her locally, regionally, and nationally. She has greatly benefited our sorority and will continue to elevate our organization. She is an impactful and transformative leader.
