Manila, Philippines - November 24, 2021 - From campaigns like #CreateKindess to #ForYouPride, TikTok is home to a global community of 1 billion people who inspire us with their ability to make a positive impact and meaningful change through creativity.

Celebrating the creativity and generosity of our community

The TikTok community is not just committed to doing good, but also giving back, as creators, non-profit organizations, and changemakers have turned to TikTok to raise funds and awareness around the causes they care about the most.

In 2021, almost 75,000 donations were made on TikTok in support of various organizations and causes globally such as fighting hunger, supporting humanitarian relief efforts as well as promoting health and wellbeing. TikTok creators such as @aynbernos,@catriona_gray, @inkamagnaye have also been at the forefront of raising awareness around some of the world's most important issues.

Sharing the spirit of #GivingSzn globally

Through #GivingSzn, TikTok will be donating $7M to various mission-driven organizations around the world to support the causes our community cares about the most. Part of the donation will be made in the name of TikTok creators globally to non-profits of their choice. We'll also be donating $1M in ad credits to support global non-profit organizations in their end-of-year fundraising efforts.
