This weekend, people all around the world joined forces and took a big step forward in the fight against the COVID-19 global pandemic.



ONE Championship teamed up with longtime partner Global Citizen to broadcast ‘One World: Together At Home,’ a global music special featuring exclusive performances, words of encouragement from A-list celebrities, and more.

Global Citizen’s ‘Together At Home’ series raised an astonishing US$127.9 million, which will benefit the World Health Organization’s COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund and the healthcare workers who are on the frontlines saving lives and fighting this virus.

‘One World: Together At Home,’ which was curated in collaboration with Lady Gaga, featured exclusive performances from the top names in the music industry including Alicia Keys, Andrea Bocelli, Elton John, Jennifer Lopez, John Legend, Kacey Musgraves, Keith Urban, LL Cool J, Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, Sam Smith, Stevie Wonder, Taylor Swift, and many more.



It also featured support from ONE Championship’s biggest superstars in the lead-up to the show, including Demetrious Johnson, Aung La N Sang, Angela Lee, Christian Lee, Eddie Alvarez, Martin Nguyen, Stamp Fairtex, Nong-O Gaiyanghadao, Sam-A Gaiyanghadao, Giorgio Petrosyan, Eduard Folayang, Rodtang Jitmuangnon, Brandon Vera, Alain Ngalani, Rika Ishige, Miesha Tate, Vitor Belfort, and John Wayne Parr.

If you missed the two-hour live global broadcast, you’re in luck.

The replay will be streaming on ONE Championship’s official Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube channels at 8:00pm Singapore Time (SGT). You can also catch it on the ONE Super App.

It is never too late to make a contribution.

The World Health Organization (WHO) is still accepting donations for its COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund.

ONE Championship is donating 10 percent of all net proceeds from its new online merchandise store, ONE.SHOP, to the WHO’s COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund and other community organizations.

The ONE Shop also features two limited edition ‘We Are ONE’ T-shirts, with 100 percent of the proceeds going to the same causes.

  1. This is a really noble cause. I wish I could help and contribute to this fundraising campaign too. But I am a very small person, doing a hard and low-paid work, and going from cash loan to cash loan without losing enthusiasm. But I hope that in my next life I will be as strong as you are and will help others too. At least this is what I want.
