Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were announced as the campaign chairs for Global Citizen's upcoming fundraiser hosted by Selena Gomez to get coronavirus vaccines to people in the world's poorest countries.
The anti-poverty organization announced earlier this month it will hold the musical event "VAX Live: The Concert to Reunite the World." Its goal is to enlist corporations and philanthropists to raise $22 billion for global vaccinations, particularly targeting countries with less access.
