MrBeast donates thousands of cookies
On Thursday afternoon, MrBeast posted a video titled "Giving Away 50,000 Cookies!" on his Beast Philanthropy channel.

MrBeast began the video by explaining what goes on at a food drive, stating that he and his team usually gave boxes of food to those that belonged to the "35% below the poverty line":
"This food drive is a little different. For whatever reason, [Milad] was compelled to make 50,000 cookies."
Members of MrBeast's Philanthropy team claimed they were "very touched" by the many people who came and called the event a "huge impact."
Milad then told the team that they needed to give away all the cookies before the end of the food drive and proceeded to name the flavors available:
"Do you understand that we have to get rid of 50,000 cookies? We got chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, and raspberry cheesecake."
The video ended with the team having hundreds of cookies leftover before they donated the rest to other local food pantries.
