Healthcare Worker Relief Facebook-a-thon

John Tesh, joined by his family and their 350 syndicated radio stations put together a Healthcare Worker Relief Facebook-a-thon on Friday, April 17. 2020 during this unprecedented situation of Covid-19.

They were live on Facebook for 6 hours, raising money to help healthcare workers.

Services provided by easylive.io

For this event, John Tesh and his team essentially used:

- The multi-streaming capabilities of easylive.io to reach several Facebook pages at the same time.

- Plus they leveraged the backup (automatic fail safe) by sending 2 different rtmp to easylive.io from 2 different computers / encoders on 2 different connections.

A local production with 4 cameras, pre-recorded videos and live Skype interviews were the backbone of that production.

Results:

They raised more than $35,000 thanks to the generosity of all the viewers and they will be providing care packages for the Healthcare workers.

Testimony

“I was brought up in the network and local news world including hosting duties for 2 Olympic Games. I am very familiar with the principle of the 'Master Control room’. Whether it's streaming one of our live concerts or broadcasting from my basement during this pandemic, easylive.io is my new failsafe. Beyond multi-streaming capabilities, easylive.io’s production interface differentiates itself from anything in the marketplace."
