GIVING TUESDAY 2023
Promoting Women With Physical Disabilities in Mass Media Spaces
#GIVING TUESDAY
Our mission is to amplify DIVAS’ voices by providing a community and network that identifies opportunities for inclusion in mass media, and by partnering with organizations who have demonstrated a commitment to the inclusion of Black and brown women and girls with visible disabilities.
This Year's #Giving Tuesday presents an opportunity to promote more opportunities for Black and Brown women with physical disabilities to be included In television, film and advertising. The Divas With Disabilities project (DWD) is leading and supporting DIVAS-Dynamic, Illuminating, Victorious, Achieving Sisters efforts to be included on and off stage and in front and behind the camera.
