LIVEMEDAID: Global Science Leaders Come Together to Support the Fight Against COVID-19
The scientific community joins musicians and prominent activists for a first-of-its-kind, live streamed fundraising event in support of Doctors Without Borders / MSF

Digital video company, Underknown, is proud to lead LIVEMEDAID, a live-streamed benefit featuring renowned scientific leaders. It will shine a spotlight on the global crisis caused by COVID-19, and celebrate hope, resilience and the human spirit.

The fundraising event will provide insight into the collaboration between global scientists and researchers in their collective hunt for a cure and share ideas about what we can learn from the virus. All money raised will support Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) and frontline healthcare workers in the fight against COVID-19.

The event will take place this Saturday, May 9 between 6 p.m. EDT – 11 p.m. EDT, and will stream live on LIVEMEDAID social channels including Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and on www.livemedaid.com.
