PUBLIC STATEMENT FROM CROWNED & CALLED
Crowned & Called was founded in Arizona with a simple mission: to bring women together in faith, encouragement, leadership, service, and community. Since its founding, it has grown into a registered nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering women while keeping Christ at the center of everything we do.
Recently, there has been some confusion online regarding Facebook groups using the same name and, in some cases, similar logos. Crowned & Called is an established organization, and like many nonprofits, we take responsibility for protecting the integrity of our name, mission, and the work that has been built around it.
When members of our community brought concerns to our attention about potential confusion involving the name Crowned & Called, we reached out to several Facebook groups to clarify whether there was any affiliation, particularly in situations where funds were being requested. Our intention was simply to ensure transparency and prevent misunderstandings for women seeking to connect with our organization or understand the monetary requests that initially raised concern. Several groups responded respectfully, chose to adjust their names, and we parted ways professionally.
As part of that effort, a formal request was sent asking for clarification and consideration of a name change to help prevent confusion as our organization continues to grow and expand into additional states. Unfortunately, that request was met with hostility and inaccurate claims about our intentions. For the sake of transparency, Crowned & Called has never attempted to stop women from gathering, nor to contradict the message of Scripture. On the contrary, we believe strongly in women supporting one another and building communities that uplift and encourage. We value and often collaborate with organizations that share a similar heart for helping women.
At no time has Crowned & Called attempted to shut down another group. In fact, we celebrate women encouraging and supporting one another. Women supporting women is a powerful and beautiful thing and is part of the movement that began when Crowned & Called was founded in 2025.
Our responsibility as an organization is simply to protect the identity of the nonprofit that has been built and to ensure that women who connect with Crowned & Called know exactly who they are engaging with.
We remain committed to our mission of faith, leadership, service, and encouragement. As Crowned & Called continues to grow and expand into additional states, we will continue to lead with integrity, professionalism, and grace.
We also believe strongly in the biblical principle found in Romans 12:18: “If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.”
Thank you to the many women and supporters who continue to stand with the vision of Crowned & Called.
With respect and gratitude,
Diondrea Annette
Founder, Crowned & Called
