There are 37 million people living with HIV around the world and we cannot lose the gains we've made to end the AIDS epidemic during this time. To find out more, visit www.ejaf.org

The series begins on Friday (July 3), at 12 p.m. ET/ 9 a.m. PT exclusively on YouTube with "Live at Playhouse Theatre, Edinburgh" from 1976.

Elton John says: "My Foundation's COVID-19 Emergency Fund helps frontline partners prepare for and respond to the pandemic and its effects on HIV prevention and care for the most marginalized communities. We cannot jeopardize HIV testing and care during this time or else the results could be disastrous for the 37.5 million people living with HIV. So, I'm really happy to connect this YouTube Concert series to benefit our Foundation's urgent COVID response."
