The Emmy-winning actress founded the charity 33 years ago.
As well as the new branding, the foundation has expanded its programming centered across five pillars: Health Awareness, Women and Girls, LGBTQ+, Social Justice & Racial Equity, and Food & Housing Insecurity.
“I have always believed that the core of effective artistic activism is trusted messengers. Trusted messengers make a world of difference because they make people feel seen and heard. They are transparent vessels that bring their lives and full experiences to the table to help others,” said Ralph in a statement.”The Diva Foundation works hard to ensure that the people who serve are represented by messengers they can trust.
Ralph has tapped colleague, tech executive, and 18-year volunteer, Norman Lee, to serve as the Diva Foundation’s executive director to carry out the rebrand and execute her expanded vision. “I have been so blessed to have been a part of this work for the last 18 years,” Norman said in a statement. “When I began volunteering with The Diva Foundation, it started with DIVAS Simply Singing! and me dedicating my time and work in memory of two of my beloved aunts who died from AIDS complications.
