Who We Are

A Better Tomorrow Foundation

A 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to revitalizing inner-city and rural communities — empowering people, one person at a time.

Our Story

Who We Are

A Better Tomorrow Foundation — formerly the Paul Harvey Fleming Foundation — was founded in 2016 by Pastor Paul H. Fleming as a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to revitalizing inner-city and rural communities throughout Mississippi and beyond.

What began as one man's calling to serve has grown into a movement rooted in mentoring, education, outreach, and tangible support for families navigating hardship. We believe lasting change starts at the community level — through real relationships, real resources, and real commitment.

Every program we run, every event we host, and every family we serve reflects one core belief: that everyone deserves a pathway to hope, opportunity, and a better tomorrow — regardless of background, economic status, race, or gender.

In Their Words

Letters From The Families We've Served

"

The Holiday season is a special time of the year, but for some people and their family it can be a difficult time, not only financially but emotionally as well. Your act of kindness showed me that someone out there does care, and that God has not forgotten us.

Thank you for supporting our kids in the Ridgeland area. As a Girl Scout Troop leader, I appreciate organizations giving back to the community.

I am a mother of 8-year-old twin girls and a single mother on a very fixed income. Every little bit helps. It is through the kindness of people like this that gives me hope there are still good people in the world.

The Henry family wants to thank you for the most generous gift of supplies to help begin our school year. You've provided a reason for Madison families to come together, even if for a short time. You are considerate and generous.

If it were not for this Foundation, some underprivileged children might not have the supplies they needed to start school. The Foundation recently helped my daughter with school supplies for her four children — we are both very appreciative.

I believe the Paul H. Fleming Foundation is doing a great job empowering children through supplies and back-to-school giveaways for children in need. Do it again!
