Lovato, whose new album “Tell Me You Love Me” drops on September 29th, is set to perform this Thursday

Every year since 2012, a group of artists and performers have gathered to raise awareness surrounding extreme poverty, as an effort to end the heartbreaking epidemic. This gathering—called the Global Citizen Festival—is organized by Global Poverty Project and is creatively led by Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin. The inaugural festival included performances from the Foo Fighters, John Legend, The Black Keys, and Band of Horses. Since then, more and more artists have volunteered to perform, in hopes of further raising awareness.

Lovato will close out the series of intimate performances, held to honor social entrepreneurs who are working to create solutions to global problems. During her performance, the cofounder of Medic Mobile, John Nesbit, will receive the third and final Global Citizen Accelerator Award of the year, presented by Cadillac.

The cause is something that is close to Lovato’s heart, as she was quoted saying, “Not everyone in the world has the luxury of living with access to basic healthcare. It’s a privilege to partner with Global Citizen and the Accelerator Series to recognize inspiring social entrepreneurs who are making it possible to get everyone the help they need, regardless of where they are born.”
