How does this benefit the World Health Organization?
While it’s not a telethon, One World: Together At Home will raise money (and already has) for WHO’s Solidarity Response fund to “support and equip healthcare workers around the world,” according to their website. “WHO is best positioned to lead and coordinate the global response across all 194 nation states. As of last week, WHO has shipped 2 million pieces of critical PPE and supplies to 68 countries worldwide, ensuring the poorest countries have the resources needed to tackle COVID-19.”
