TikTok’s Uplifting Influence on Community-Giving and Hope

Advocacies & Initiatives

MANILA, Philippines—TikTok, the foremost platform for short-form mobile videos, goes beyond the digital realm with initiatives that underscore its dedication to positive societal contributions, illuminating stories that champion community, resilience, and the transformative power of giving.

Marking a significant milestone for TikTok and TikTok Shop, the turnover ceremony of the #CreatorsGiveBack donations at the National Children’s Hospital (NCH) took place on December 20. In collaboration with partners Moonton, PLDT Home, and ANTA, the TikTok community actively participated in generating donations, including essential items like groceries, equipment, and other necessities, addressing the specific needs of patients at the NCH through the #CreatorsGiveBack initiative and the 12.12 TikTok Shop live streams.

TikTok Shop, in conjunction with HOPE, a local non-government organization dedicated to enhancing public school infrastructure, invested PHP 1.8 million to construct two classrooms in Casini Elementary School, a local primary school in Sorsogon. The initiative, themed “#TikTokShopGiveHopeToLife,” witnessed wholehearted contributions from the platform’s merchants, transforming each sale into a meaningful gesture of support.

“At TikTok, we believe that authentic expression builds connection and a strong sense of community that, in turn, brings positive impact. These initiatives thrive on the active involvement of Filipino TikTok users, creators, sellers, and partners, highlighting the platform’s capability to bring people together for a meaningful cause,” said Toff Rada, TikTok Head of Public Policy, Philippines.

TikTok remains committed to inviting its community, including users, creators, and partners, to join hands in crafting a narrative that celebrates generosity, the joy of shared experiences, and the hopeful vision of a brighter future.
