South African multi-platinum-selling R&B star Donald is hosting a virtual concert with a cause this evening.
The singer, without the assistance of mainstream media, has garnered enough support for his initiative to support the less fortunate.
In his own words, the virtual concert is Donald’s attempt to raise funds “for electricity coupons & food parcels for those struggling right now.”
Ticket prices and where to buy them
Tickets to the online concert are retailing for R50 at Hero Ticket. Once you have confirmed the number of tickets you want, the next landing page is the ‘donations’ section where fans are given four causes to support.
- #FaceUpToCOVID19 Mask Campaign: A R20 contribution towards ensuring the less fortunate are gifted with free face masks.
- COVID-ZERO package to those in need: A R100 donation will gift each beneficiary with a reusable face mask, 500ML bottle of hand sanitiser and an information sheet on Covid-19
- Food Parcels: R400 can be donated to support less fortunate families with a parcel of essential foods
- M4Jam Food Hamper: R400 donation for an M4Jam hamper that includes sanitary and hygiene products like toilet paper and soap, as well as a variety of edible products such as maize meal, cooking oil, rice, instant noodles, canned foods, salt and sugar.

Donald Cares virtual concert: What time is the live stream?
Donald has been on overdrive with the guerilla marketing of this concert. Since there is really no capacity to the number of tickets he can sell, we are not privy to how many fans are booked in to watch him perform his greatest hits.
Alas, the concert event is set to take place at 20:00. At this time, there is no direct link to the live stream we know of.
It can be assumed that ticketholders are forwarded the link on confirmation of purchase.
