Camila Cabello and Ed Sheeran to perform at Concert For Ukraine: ‘We all have a responsibility’
Viewers will also be able to donate, with the funds going towards medical aid, shelter, and providing food and water.
Camila Cabello and Ed Sheeran are among the list of stars teaming up to perform for a special cause, taking the stage in Birmingham, England on March 29, at the ‘Concert For Ukraine’ fundraising.
Taking place at the Resorts World Arena, the live two-hour special will also include Emeli Sandé, Gregory Porter and Snow Patrol, with more acts announced in the following days.
The artists have expressed interest in helping raise funds for those affected by the invasion of Russia in Ukraine, amid the ongoing conflict between the two Eastern European countries.
“My heart is breaking for the people of Ukraine,” Camila shared in a statement, explaining that “As refugees from Ukraine join millions of other displaced people around the globe, we all have a responsibility. One of the biggest needs is to get funds to organizations who can serve these communities directly, so we’re focusing our efforts on doing that as quickly as we can.”
“I will be singing to try to help every innocent human being forced to flee their home and in solidarity with those being racially discriminated against even within this humanitarian crisis,” said Sandé in a statement.
All the revenue generated from sponsorship and advertising will be donated by ITV to the Disasters Emergency Committee, expecting to raise almost $4 million. Viewers will also be able to donate, with the funds going towards medical aid, shelter, and providing food and water.
