DIVAS Simply Singing! – presented by Sheryl Lee Ralph’s DIVA (Divinely Inspired Victoriously Alive) Foundation – is the longest consecutive running HIV/AIDS benefit concert in the country and utilizes star power to help raise money, awareness and erase stigma associated with patients who have contracted the disease.
