MrBeast Named Chief of Development in Ghana
American YouTube star MrBeast has received a traditional honour in Ghana following a major school development project.
Through Beast Philanthropy, the creator supported the rebuilding of a deteriorating school structure in a rural community.
The initiative included constructing modern classrooms, drilling a clean water well and providing additional support for teachers and more than 250 students.
In recognition of the impact, community leaders conferred on him the honorary title of “Chief of Development,” and named a classroom block after him.
MrBeast, widely known for large scale online challenges, has increasingly integrated philanthropy into his content model, funding projects related to food security, healthcare and education across different countries.
Local residents described the school transformation as life changing for pupils who now have safer learning spaces and reliable access to clean water, highlighting how digital influence can translate into tangible community improvements.
