What is the DIVA FOUNDATION?... The Diva Foundation is a national not-for-profit 501(C)3 charitable organization that was founded by Sheryl Lee Ralph, in 1990, as a memorial to the many friends she had lost to HIV/AIDS. The organization focuses on generating resources and coordinating activities to create awareness of and combat against HIV/AID. The DIVA Foundation utilizes music and entertainment as a vehicle to inform, educate and erase the stigma attached to this deadly disease. For the past 19 years Sheryl Lee Ralph's DIVA Foundation has presented, with sponsorship from caring companies, DIVAS SIMPLY SINGING! - a magical evening of song and entertainment created to assist Los Angeles AIDS organizations efforts to raise funds and awareness, allowing them to continue to help and support those in need. The Diva Foundation has acted locally but is widening its sphere of influence to include more HIV/AIDS organizations around the country and globe. Part of the Sheryl Lee Ralph's Home Fragrance Collection, uniquely scented, elegant candles; provide another way for others to help light the light of compassion as we fight the good fight against HIV/AIDS. Partial proceeds from the sale of these candles support the DIVA FOUNDATION and are tax-deductible. Our awareness campaign has grown to include: "Sometimes I Cry" a one woman-show written and performed by Sheryl Lee Ralph, town hall meetings, prevention seminars, free HIV testing, HIV/AIDS counseling, and free healthcare materials. A sponsored luncheon, where gloves must be worn to drive home the slogan: "No glove, No love!!", and hosted by Sheryl Lee Ralph, community leaders and health experts, provides a non-threatening, intimate atmosphere where guests can get much needed information, address critical issues, ask questions and be assured of an educated and informed answer. Ms. Ralph has recorded a series of HIV awareness PSAs for grass roots organizations in need of assistance. --- http://SamTunes.NET ... to download all of the Sam Harris MP3 songs and albums on iTunes. ♫ http://Twitter.com/SamHarris ...
