Live Aid and Band Aid were both founded by musician and activist Bob Geldof. Live Aid was a dual-venue benefit concert held on 13 July 1985, and organized by Geldof and Midge Ure to raise funds for relief of the ongoing Ethiopian famine. The event was held simultaneously at Wembley Stadium in London, England, and JFK Stadium in Philadelphia, United States. It was one of the largest-scale satellite link-ups and television broadcasts of all time, with an estimated global audience of 1.9 billion across 150 nations.

Band Aid was a charity supergroup featuring mainly British and Irish musicians and recording artists. It was founded in 1984 by Geldof and Ure to raise funds for anti-famine efforts in Ethiopia. The group recorded the hit song "Do They Know It's Christmas?" which became one of the best-selling singles of all time. The success of the single led to the creation of the Live Aid concert the following year.

Geldof's efforts with Live Aid and Band Aid helped raise millions of dollars for famine relief in Ethiopia and brought global attention to the crisis. His activism and philanthropy have earned him numerous awards and recognitions, including a knighthood from Queen Elizabeth II.
