He also set up his own charity foundation Mission 44 in the year, which aims to support young people from underrepresented groups in the UK through collaborations and grants. "As Di.Va Testimonial, he stands for diversity, equality and above all, love. I couldn't think of a better friend for this campaign," said Piccioli.

Sein erster DiVA Botschafter ist der siebenfache Formel-1-Weltmeister Sir Lewis Hamilton. Wenn Lewis nicht gerade in einem Rennanzug stecket, engagiert er sich wohltätig oder auch im kreativen Umfeld wie Musik oder Mode. So arbeitet Lewis darauf hin, Veränderungen im Motorsport zu erreichen. Außerdem gründete er im Jahr seine eigene Wohltätigkeitsstiftung Mission 44, die junge Menschen aus unterrepräsentierten Gruppen in Großbritannien durch Kooperationen und Zuschüsse fördern soll. "Als Di.Va Testimonial steht er für Vielfalt, Gleichberechtigung und vor allem für die Liebe. Ich könnte mir keinen besseren Freund für diese Kampagne vorstellen", sagte Piccioli. "Sie wird eine einfühlsame, menschliche und inspirierende Botschaft vermitteln, und sie wird wahrhaftig sein, wie die Person hinter dem Prominenten." 


Für die Valentino Kampagne wurde Lewis von Nicolas Kern fotografiert. Das Foto zeigt den Rennfahrer in einem komplett pinkfarbenen Outfit, wobei er auf eine Dose mit pinker Farbe hinunterschaut und einem Pinsel, mit dem er gerade das Manifest geschrieben hat: "Still I Rise".
