I had the profound privilege of working alongside LaDonna who shares her powerful survivor testimony with incredible courage and grace. She is the kindest, bravest, and most genuine individual I have ever met. Her commitment to helping others led her to start her own nonprofit, where she continues to change the lives of so many survivors, offering them hope, support, and strength.

Working with her was an absolute pleasure, and I am deeply inspired by her resilience and dedication to making a positive impact in the world. I am honored to call her a colleague and friend. ~ Anja J., Victim Advocate

Volunteering for LaDonna Renee VST Foundation, Inc. (Find Your Voice V/S/T), a foundation run and founded by LaDonna Renee, was such a beautiful experience. LaDonna is such an incredible person and gives an outlet to women who have survived horrible situations and abuse. I have never experienced such vulnerability and closeness with a group of women like that before. I especially loved writing a supportive note for each speaker, and handing it to them at the end of their presentation. Hearing these incredibly brave and strong women’s stories was so empowering. If you are struggling, I recommend going to one of LaDonna’s events! You will be greeted with support and leave feeling so much stronger! - Emma Aumack, former Miss El Cajon

I had the pleasure of hosting LaDonna as a guest speaker in my class at San Diego State University: FratMANners (Fraternity Men Against Negative Environments and Rape Situations). LaDonna shared her personal story of triumph and survivorship to a group of impressionable, young, college men. She taught our students about sexual assault and how to support survivors. LaDonna has been invited back to speak every semester and she is always a favorite among the students. It has been an honor to learn from LaDonna. She is extremely courageous, kind, and empathetic. - M. Anderson, MPH

LaDonna has been working with student groups at SDSU for the past few years. Every semester students look forward and have praised LaDonna for her story. I always enjoy inviting LaDonna back to our upper-division courses to advocate for survivors, teach best ways to support survivors of IPV, and spread awareness to non-traditional groups. LaDonna is a wonderful presenter and works well with our students. I highly recommend LaDonna for any presentations! - M. Amacker, MPH, CA, CHES


I had the opportunity to attend one of LaDonna’s safety workshops and realized right away how special she is. It was a pleasure meeting her a second time when she agreed with humbleness and humility to share her story on my Child Safety Video Series. I immediately recognize the strength in her character, the sweetness and innocence in her voice, as she told her brave yet painful story of being a victim, but above all a SURVIVOR of a sexual assault and abduction! I applaud LaDonna in doing great work by continuing to share her story with others! - F. Denton, President of Thinking Kap Kalender for child safety awareness
