- Monday, Beast Philanthropy and the Rockefeller Foundation announced a strategic partnership to mobilize youth concern for the world's most vulnerable ahead of a Nov. 21 video shoot at MrBeast's Greenville, North Carolina, studio.
- The move pairs Jimmy Donaldson's youth reach with The Rockefeller Foundation's 112-year history, with Dr. Rajiv Shah saying MrBeast engages young people through a data-driven, results-focused approach.
- The Rockefeller Foundation highlighted Beast Philanthropy's Zambia project delivering solar power and clean water and said they have begun cocoa industry child labor efforts with Feastables.
- They plan to visit Ghana early next year to learn from one another, but no shared grantmaking has been announced as issues are still being hammered out.
- As an intergenerational alliance, the deal pairs a Gilded Age philanthropy with a 21st-century creator; observers call it an unlikely marriage while The Rockefeller Foundation aims to convert youth engagement into measurable philanthropy.
