Who is doing the most good in the world, and how? (kbin.social)

My feed is filled with bad news, which is my fault for using the fediverse as a news feed, but it made me wonder: Which organisations, groups or individual people in the world are doing the most good for our world? I'm particularly interested in those who manage to do good on a larger impact scale (quantity or quality), but if the unknown person on your street who fosters kittens is a great example, I'd love to hear about them too.

Mr. Rogers told me to look for the helpers in times of trouble. Tell me about your favorite helpers!

Take a look at Mr beasts philanthropy channel. One of his videos he built wells in Africa and gave clean water to 500,000 people as well as solar panels and lights to schools.

I generally avoid YouTubers, but this sounds worthwhile. I'm glad someone is leading the way in the online celebrity space
