“Kindness currency is absolutely free, and anyone can give it.' Lady Gaga is curating a coronavirus benefit concert on April 18 to celebrate and raise money for healthcare workers on the frontline of the pandemic.
The idea blossomed after Lady Gaga spoke to 68 corporate leaders to talk about the spirit of kindness. As a result, they are fundraising in an international effort to help medical workers and patients. The funds will also go toward scientific research.
“I know distinctly that the position that I'm in in my home environment — is very different from somebody that's living in an unsanitary environment where it's very dense, where they can't get clean food, where they don't have a job or they're losing their job,” said Lady Gaga. “They can't feed their children, they can't feed themselves. Maybe they're in a situation where there's domestic abuse in the household.
The singer said she sees the concert as opportunity to create a two-hour cultural moment that highlights the global community and harnesses kindness. “I feel that we are actually witnessing an absolute triumph of bravery and courage that is unprecedented during a global pandemic and that the medical community should be celebrated,” said Lady Gaga, who was joined by IBM’s Ginny Rometty and PepsiCo’s Kirk Tanner. She noted the concert isn’t a fundraiser
