Sheryl Lee Ralph Presents DIVAS Simply Singing! Return 4

DIVAS Simply Singing! Raising Health Awareness, a highly anticipated annual benefit concert, raises awareness and funds for programs that educate audiences on awareness and prevention of HIV/AIDS and other life-threatening health conditions. In its 33rd year, it’s the longest-running HIV/AIDS and Health Awareness benefit concert in the US, executive produced and hosted by Sheryl Lee Ralph, along with long-time producing partners Norman Lee (also Executive Director of the foundation) and Stephanie Lilly Smith. Over 300 stars, including Whoopi Goldberg, Jennifer Hudson, Sharon Stone, Jennifer Holliday, Loretta Devine, Patti LaBelle, Deborah Cox, Faith Evans, Michelle Williams, Lalah Hathaway, Chaka Khan, Jody Watley, Oleta Adams, and Raven Symoné, have lifted their voices in solidarity. Performers and presenters to be announced soon.

Sheryl Lee Ralph created her charitable organization, The DIVA Foundation, 34 years ago to mobilize resources, fight stigma, fundraise, and deliver urgent messaging around the awareness and prevention of HIV/AIDS and other life-threatening conditions. Over the past 34 years, The Foundation has launched efforts that harness the power of the arts to amplify awareness messaging. The DIVA Foundation’s work empowers communities to achieve better health outcomes. Recent events during the COVID-19 Pandemic further accentuated the need for the Foundation’s work when widespread and unresolved social injustice surfaced and boiling point conversations around health disparities being more prevalent in vulnerable communities presented an opportunity for the Foundation to expand its programming efforts.

Most recently, The DIVA Foundation launched a new brand and announced its new programming centered across five pillars: Health Awareness, Women and Girls, LGBTQ+, Social Justice & Racial Equity, and Food & Housing Insecurity. To learn more visit www.diva.foundation.
