Jimmy Donaldson is well-known for his charitable acts, besides being a top content creator. The 24-year-old has helped many needful people during the global pandemic and still continues to do so. He even started programs like #TeamTrees and #TeamSeas. Further, he also has a YouTube channel dedicated to philanthropy.

MrBeast shuts those doubting his philanthropy

The 24-year-old has an alternative YouTube channel called Beast Philanthropy, which is dedicated to charitable acts. He uploads videos of him and his team helping those in need. They build houses and proper water systems. And they also deliver food and necessary items to others to help.

Further, all the videos are fundraisers, meaning MrBeast fans can donate to MrBeast’s charitable program via those videos. He also doesn’t take a penny from the videos that they make via monetization. However, some people question his motivation behind doing these and doubt many of his charitable acts.

However, the 24-year-old finally spoke up and shared, “I know myself, and I don’t have anything to prove to anyone. I think what I’ve done speaks for itself.” He further continued how he has a channel for philanthropy where he spends hours and a lot of money. But would never earn profit from the channel.

The Carolina-based YouTuber said, “I lose five figures and dozens of hours every month. The opportunity cost could go to projects that make millions of dollars. So I don’t care. I don’t say this stuff publicly because that’s not why I do it.”

Jimmy Donaldson wasn’t into philanthropy as a kid

In an interview, Jimmy’s mother, Sue, revealed that the YouTube megastar was not interested in philanthropy when he was a young kid. He never participated in volunteer activities and community services during his childhood. Even MrBeast Philanthropy’s CEO, Darren Margolias, revealed Donaldson got a knack for philanthropy after donating money from his early deals.
