The longest running HIV/AIDS benefit concert in the nation, “Divas Simply Singing”, will be held at Dell Music Center, Saturday, Aug. 22, 7:00PM.

The event will include soul-stirring performances by some of the most talented women in entertainment, including:  Faith Evans, Melba Moore, Angela Winbush, Meli’sa Morgan, Monifah,  Candace Benson, Alyson Williams, Philly’s own Carol Riddick Bucks County native Matthew Schuler (“The Voice”), the Urban Guerilla Orchestra and more!

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. The benefit concert features a host of the entertainment industry’s most talented women united in song to continue the courageous battle to halt the spread of HIV/AIDS one song at a time.

The event will also feature on-site testing and testimonies by those who are impacted by HIV/AIDS. Additionally, organizations that provide services and support to this targeted population will distribute important resource information about prevention and treatment.
