TikTok creators around the world create a positive impact on and beyond the platform. We see this every day through videos from heartwarming heroes like Mesha (@mr.colitiscrohns), who documents how Crohn's impacts his day-to-day life. Or with rapping science teacher Matt (@mattgreen.jgm) whose goal is to help as many students as possible excel in science, as well as vibrant personalities like Arthur Baucheron (@arthurbaucheron) who show us that life is not limited by physical conditions, and sustainability champions such as Zolia Isabel Rondon Rodas (@meninadasvassouras) who share creative eco-friendly solutions to everyday problems.

Building on our ongoing commitment to foster a global community who is passionate about using #TikTokforGood, we're honoured to introduce the TikTok Change Makers Program, our first-ever global social impact creator elevation program that spotlights creators and non-profits who create meaningful change in their communities through TikTok. Throughout this 6-month program, we will support these creators to build engaged communities, reach new audiences, and unlock real-world opportunities through dedicated tools, resources, and donations to designated non-profit organisations, which will allow them to drive an even greater impact around their causes.

Introducing the TikTok Change Makers

To officially launch this program we are celebrating and unveiling our inaugural global list of TikTok Change Makers, comprising 50 purpose-driven creators from around the world. Whether it's spreading positivity or sharing good deeds, these Change Makers continue to advocate, inspire, and educate their communities to drive collective change on TikTok and beyond.

Championing causes with non-profit organisations through the TikTok Change Makers Grant

As a platform that celebrates creativity and authentic expression, TikTok brings together creators, non-profit organisations and businesses with a shared vision to rally support, raise awareness and funds for causes that matter. We've also seen over 50,000 posts under the #TikTokforGood hashtag, showcasing the strength and impact of a community that's keen to drive meaningful change and unlock real-world impact.

As we continue forging meaningful partnerships between creators and non-profit organisations, we are also introducing the TikTok Change Makers Grant as an integral part of the TikTok Change Makers Program. Through this Grant, we are donating over $1 million to over 30 global and local non-profit organisations supporting a variety of important causes, making a $25,000 direct donation in honour of every Change Maker to support their respective advocacies while elevating the impact of their work.

"The TikTok global community harnesses creative self-expression to drive positive impact by rallying support, raising awareness, and advocating for the causes they truly care about.
