“This pandemic is too large for governments to tackle alone,” said Hugh Evans, co-founder and CEO of Global Citizen, in a statement. “We’re calling on individuals and philanthropists to join and support COVID-19 response initiatives. Changemakers, investors, and foundation leaders are being urged to support global health efforts by investing in building stronger health systems and funding vaccine development.
“We are also incredibly grateful for the continued support from the artist community to make One World: Together At Home a moment of global unity,” Evans said. “Our hope for the special is that everyone will come away believing that we, as a shared humanity, can emerge from this moment forever grateful for the work of doctors, nurses, teachers, grocery store workers, and all those who are the backbone of our communities.”
