Sling TV will be supporting in the battle against coronavirus by contributing funds to the Good360 charity group. These donations from Sling TV are the full proceeds of their Sling TV streaming services. Starting from the 5th day in April, these funds will be released.
In a statement from Good360’s Chief Executive Officer, Matt Connelly, it was mentioned that the charity organization would be putting the donated funds to good use. They would make essential goods and provisions available in areas suffering from COVID-19, support those who have suffered unemployment, and more.
The report also stated that Good360 is capable and prepared to utilize available funds from its pool of various contributors. It would also use connections with other support groups, to help those in dire need.
Just like several other groups, governments, and organizations that are promoting social distancing measures, Sling TV is also partaking in these promotions. The company has set up a movement called “Stay in & Sling” to help with this promotion.
