Most notably, Mark teamed up again with MrBeast for their biggest philanthropic YouTube launch yet, unveiling the TeamWater campaign aimed at raising 40 million dollars for clean water projects through WaterAid. Variety and other major outlets covered the pitch, emphasizing that the campaign has roped in over 3,000 creators from 84 countries and boasts the backing of YouTube itself with a two million dollar matching contribution.
