Celebrate freedom, connection, and the beauty of giving.

My daughter loved her toys. I was  not financially able to provide toys. It felt good to get support from DIVAS and feel connected to my recovery community. Without DIVAS help we wouldn’t have had anything.

Joyfest was such a blessing. My kids and I were treated like family. I was able to give my kids Christmas gifts and I was also given a gift from the Divas, and it made me feel so special. My son got his first massage and it was the greatest thing ever. It was an unforgettable experience. The picture we took at Joyfest was our favorite Christmas picture that year. Divas has always been my first choice of a safe place to go and get support. i am truly blessed to have these ladies in my life.

Thanks to Joyfest , our family was blessed with presents to put under the tree for each child in my family. They really helped make Christmas possible for us.

Thank you for checking out DIVAS Who Win-

I’m so glad you’re here.

Hi, I’m Chanda, the founder of DIVAS Who Win. If human trafficking seems so heart-wrenching and hopeless you’d rather look the other way, I understand. I know the horrors of human trafficking first hand. And after diving into the work of helping survivors, I know how staggering the need is.

But please hear me when I say, our efforts to make a difference are working!

Based on my own experience and the transformations of women around me, I have no doubt that women recover better when they do so together. Everything we do at the Freedom Center, including our plans for Freedom House, revolves around a community effort to walk alongside women as they pursue wholeness and freedom.

Ladies,

Come enjoy a night just for you. Then, carry home these warm reminders that will out-last the season: You are not alone. We are cheering you on.

Your soul is worth celebrating.
