Party with a purpose — from home.

DJs Diplo and Dillon Francis are joining forces for a back-to-back livestream set dubbed “Coronight Fever” on Saturday that will feed underprivileged families with the help of DoorDash.

Page Six has exclusively learned that the food delivery service is donating one free meal to a family in need through the Feeding America organization for every person that tunes in to the livestream.

Fans also have a chance to win DoorDash gift cards by taking a screenshot of the livestream, posting the photo on their Instagram, and tagging #MadDecentDoorDash.

The DJs’ live sets will begin at 8 p.m. PT on Mad Decent’s Twitch channel or Diplo’s YouTube.

Diplo, 41, said he wanted to get involved with this partnership because it’s “pretty cool to be able to help [DoorDash] do that just by playing music.”

Francis, 32, who said he is staying busy during quarantine by hosting livestreams, making new music, and “building lots of blanket forts,” added, “Anything I can do to help this initiative, I am more than happy to do!”

Diplo told DoorDash that while in quarantine he has also been doing livestreams, working on new music, working out, playing chess, and catching up on sleep.

In March, the father of two revealed he was self-isolating away from sons, Lockett, 9, and Lazer, 5, as a preventative measure amid the coronavirus pandemic because he had just returned from touring, where he was exposed to big groups of people.

However, Diplo admitted he is already over the lockdown, saying, “I’m having so much fun with the streams and making the best of it, but I miss traveling and being able to connect with fans in person all over, so I can’t wait to do that again!”
