AEG Presents Supports Global Citizen's "Stand Up For Ukraine!" Campaign
Initiative Mobilized People Around the World Ahead of the Global Humanitarian Pledging Summit
AEG Presents, a world leader in the music and entertainment industries, joined Global Citizen’s “Stand Up For Ukraine!” campaign, a global digital rally to raise funds to refugees around the world.
In addition to spreading the word through AEG Presents’ social media channels and clubs and theaters across the world, the company reached out to many of its touring artists who participated in the campaign ahead of the April 9, pledging summit.
“Because of the war in Ukraine, more than 12 million people are displaced around the world and nearly two million of them are women and children,” said Jay Marciano, CEO of AEG Presents. “Music has a way of powerfully impacting people’s emotions and reactions, and for decades musicians have come together to support humanitarian relief efforts. We are proud to partner with Global Citizen on this campaign and we applaud their ongoing efforts to raise awareness and drive impact around some of the most critical issues facing our world today.”
