Samsung Partners with The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to Celebrate Heroic Moms

5/8/2020

Moms show up every day to help us be our best. They’re our cheerleaders, our educators, our source of love, and our source of strength. And during difficult times like these, many moms are also our source of inspiration as frontline healthcare workers.

As a part of our campaign to Put Mom in the Picture #withGalaxy this Mother’s Day,

Samsung teamed up with The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to surprise and award six amazing moms in the healthcare industry performing selfless work on behalf of their patients and their communities.

We’re honored to celebrate the inspiring work of these women, whose bravery during this crisis has been nothing short of heroic. From spending vacation days traveling to New York City to work on the frontlines, to balancing grad school and everything in between, these Moms have provided us with the inspiration to support our neighbors and greater communities.

Powered by the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G, Jimmy video chatted with the moms to hear their stories and learn more about their important work on the frontlines. After their inspiring conversations, Jimmy surprised the moms with a special gift: in addition to keeping their new Galaxy S20 Ultra smartphones, they all received $25,000 and a Samsung Galaxy Bundle, featuring the Galaxy Watch Active2, Galaxy Tab S6, and the Galaxy Buds+.

 

With so many ways to keep in touch with Mom during these times, each experience must be seamless. With the help of the Galaxy S20, starting a video chat is as simple as making a phone call—all mom needs to do is tap Google Duo right from the dialer. And whether they’re connecting between shifts, or from home, they can enjoy video chatting, with up to 12 participants, to feel closer than ever to friends and family.

At Samsung, we’re proud to continue supporting the health and vitality of communities across the country. Our various donation efforts include supporting students and teachers transition to remote learning by providing technology and supplies to schools. We are also offering special discounts and free smartphone repairs to first responders and healthcare professionals. Together, these donations build upon our global efforts to date, surpassing over $33 million.

For all of us, it’s never been more important to celebrate moments of joy and hope in our communities. And there’s no better place to start than with our families. So this Mother’s Day, let’s celebrate all the inspiring Moms around the world who are serving others through daily acts of heroism.
