The campaign aims to unify individual acts into a global humanitarian movement. MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, commands more than 873 million followers across social platforms and generates over 62 billion views annually.

Campaign Partnership

The initiative was created in partnership with the 1 Billion Followers Summit and is supported by Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives (MBRGI) and the Varkey Foundation.

“We view content creators as a powerful driver of humanitarian action and as role models who inspire millions to contribute to building and empowering communities,” said Mohammad Al Gergawi, Minister of Cabinet Affairs and Secretary General of MBRGI. He noted the campaign generated more than 170,000 humanitarian and community actions within three weeks.

The announcement was made during the fourth edition of the 1 Billion Followers Summit 2026, organized by the UAE Government Media Office and hosted under the theme “Content for Good.” The summit brought together more than 15,000 content creators and influencers, alongside over 500 speakers, 150 CEOs, and global experts.

Previous Philanthropic Efforts

MrBeast previously raised $2.3 million during the first day of his #TeamWater fundraiser in August 2025 after appearing on Adin Ross’ Kick livestream. That campaign aimed to collect $40 million by the end of August to fund clean water projects globally.

The #TeamWater initiative, built on MrBeast’s earlier “100 Wells in Africa” project launched in November 2023 which constructed over 100 wells across Cameroon, Kenya, Somalia, Uganda, and Zimbabwe, providing clean water access to more than 250,000 people.
