MrBeast is not just the biggest content creator of this decade, but also the biggest philanthropist as well. This was proven much truer recently when he along with world record-holder chef, Nick DiGiovanni, made it possible for an NGO to collect 15 million+ meals for the needy.

This was also intriguing because the challenge only required watching a YouTube short. Therefore, the total donation was determined by the number of views, likes, and comments the short could receive.

In a recent YouTube short from a few days back, Chef Nick DiGiovanni, and YouTube millionaire, MrBeast, shared the news that a community project known as the ‘Farmlink Project,’ will donate meals according to the views, likes, and comments of the short.

They said, “Let’s feed a lot of people. For every view, FarmLink will donate one meal. That means your eyes just fed someone. And for every like they will donate five meals. This means your finger also fed people and [with] every comment 10 more meals and your thumbs also fed people.”

The video got some spectacular numbers as well. Right now, the video has 15,867,686 views, 4.7M likes, and approx. 1.8 million comments. This is also important to notice, that the goal for the video was to reach 10 million views so that the Farmlink project can donate that many meals to the needy. But because of the popularity of both creators combined, the number of meals reached 15,930,000.

Furthermore, the NGO has a goal of reaching 100 million meals before spring 2023, and with the help of YouTubers like MrBeast and Nick DiGiovanni, it seems that it will be completed soon.
