The video was updated to bring awareness to supporting first responders and to partner with the First Responders Children’s Foundation, one of two charities to benefit from FOX and iHeart Media’s "Living Room Concert for America," which launched the COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund that awards grants to first responders experiencing financial hardship due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Emergency medical technicians (EMTs), firefighters, paramedics, police officers, medical personnel treating COVID-19 patients, and employees and supporting first responders such as 911 dispatchers are eligible for the grants and scholarships.
