Live Nation kick-started the campaign in March 2020 ass COVID-19 puts concerts on pause. They wanted to extend a helping hand to the touring and venue crews who depend on shows to make a living.

Crew Nation is powered by Music Forward Foundation, a charitable 501c3 organization, that will be administering the fund. Live Nation has committed $10 million to Crew Nation – contributing an initial $5 million to the fund, then matching the next $5 million given by artists, fans, and employees dollar for dollar."

“If it weren’t for COVID-19, we would have been happily touring across the world with many of our live concert crews by now,” said BTS, according to Variety. “We are aware that a lot of communities need help due to COVID-19, and we wanted to support the music industry crews by making a donation. We hope to meet again on stage very soon.”

Big Hit’s Global CEO Lenzo Yoon further said, “It is very unfortunate that the music industry has to go through such a difficult time at the moment. We hope our contribution to Crew Nation could help support many live concert crews around the world.”

Earlier this month, BTS donated $1 million to Black Lives Matter fund along with their parent company Big Hit Entertainment. To match the contribution of the group, BTS fans called ARMY raised over $1 million in just a day for the charity as well.
