The show is presented by the Middleton family and will be produced by ESM Productions, a ROC Nation Company, along with support from Live Nation Philadelphia and Live Nation Urban.

"Despite the Fund's success to date, the needs of the most vulnerable among us continue to persist," said Pedro Ramos, President & CEO of Philadelphia Foundation. "Additional funding will support the urgent and pressing needs of the community."

"As the pandemic wears on, we continue to see our neighbors facing very real, very urgent challenges, placing ongoing strain on the limited resources that are available to help," said Bill Golderer, President & CEO, UWGPSNJ. "As successful as the Fund has been in raising money and identifying and addressing the most immediate, pressing needs in our community, the nonprofits at the frontline of the crisis are still struggling to meet increased demand for services. The additional funds raised from this event will not only make sure their doors remain open for those hardest hit in our community but ensure we stand ready to address emerging needs as well."

"These past two months have been a distressing time for all of us - particularly those who are most in need and lacking food, shelter and hope," said John S. Middleton, managing partner of the Phillies. "We all know there are people who can use a hand up right now."

The PHL COVID-19 Fund was launched in mid-March. Since then, it has raised $16 million dollars from 5,000 different donors and aided nearly 400 regional nonprofits who work on the frontlines directly serving the community during this pandemic. The fund is managed by the City of Philadelphia, the Philadelphia Foundation, United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey (UWGPSNJ).
