THE MAN BEHIND THE MISSION

Beast Philanthropy was founded by Jimmy Donaldson, known globally as MrBeast, the world's #1 YouTube creator. What started as a passion for making content became something much larger: proof that an internet audience, mobilized with intention, can fund and execute real-world change at a scale previously unimaginable for a nonprofit.

Jimmy's approach to philanthropy is the same as his approach to everything else: go bigger, document everything, and make it impossible to ignore. Every Beast Philanthropy project is funded through the reach of his platform and executed with the same rigor as the videos that built it.
Our Approach

HOW WE CHOOSE THE WORK

Beast Philanthropy focuses its resources on community-based projects that help lift communities in a sustainable and persistent way.

What we look for in every project:

Scale of Impact

How many lives can this change?

Verifiability

Can we document and prove what happened?

Results

Can we demonstrate a clear outcome?

HOW WE TRACK
THE WORK

Every project has a defined status.
We publish what's happening and what's been done.

Active

How we document it

Every active project is tracked through:

  • On-the-ground photography from the field
  • Data collection through partner organizations
  • Third-party verification of outcomes
Documenting the work in the field

When work is done, we say so. When it isn't, we say that too.

The Model

HOW IT WORKS

The Beast Philanthropy YouTube channel generates revenue through views. Every dollar of that revenue goes directly to funding the charity to deliver real-world impact, through direct deployment and partnerships with established organizations on the ground.

The Cycle

Every video funds a real-world project.

What that means
in practice

  • Donations and ad revenue are deployed with a clear plan
  • Partnerships are vetted before funds are committed
  • Outcomes are documented and published
  • Nothing is launched without accountability built in
