The foundation works around the world to promote and organize improvements to healthcare, education, small business finance and other causes.
The foundation and Yahoo!, which will provide live streaming of the concert, said "an all-star group of the most influential and socially responsible artists in music, film, and television will come together to celebrate" Clinton's work.
