“We are grateful to the private sector who have listened to the public’s call for action and come together to support the global response to COVID-19. This pandemic is too large for governments to tackle alone," Hugh Evans, co-founder and CEO of Global Citizen, said in a statement to the "TODAY" show.
"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," he added. "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.”
