charity

In the age of GoFundMe, people are becoming super entitled and super shameless when they ask for help of any kind. These "needy" individuals are some of the worst offenders we've seen yet. We really hope these choosy beggars take a long and hard in the mirror, but we're not holding our breath for that kind of decency.

Elon Musk just donated $1 million worth of trees to YouTuber MrBeast's fundraiser, which aims to raise $20 million toward climate change efforts. The campaign, called #TeamTrees, is a partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation. Musk, who renamed himself "Treelon" on Twitter, currently holds the record for biggest donation, followed by the likes of MrBeast, Jeffree Star, and...the entire nation of Ukraine.

Dank memers on Reddit have been going crazy meme-ing their favorite billionaire for his (supposed) charitable efforts. Below are some of our favorite examples!

We spend a lot of time covering cringey people who make us believe there's very little hope for the human race, but every now and then we see people who make us believe the opposite. Redditor u/MrElonMusk420shared some photos yesterday of his beloved grandfather's leatherman tool with the intention of selling it to help pay for his sick mother's medical costs.

The community quickly decided they weren't going to let the big-hearted student sell the family heirloom, and instead started flooding his PayPal account with donations. He received so many kind gifts that eventually he removed his PayPal from the thread. It's wholesome moments like this that make us happy that the internet exists, and that there really are some solid people using it.

Okay, this is some Keanu-level wholesomeness right here. In a world where we're constantly being bombarded with negative news, sometimes it pays to just be a kind person, and this Tumblr thread exemplifies that perfectly. Even the smallest gesture can mean the world to someone - you never know when you'll make someone's day!

Matthew Green got a little more than he bargained for when he tweeted that his son wanted to dye his hair blue, but only if Green would also do it. Another Twitter user replied saying that if Green were to follow through with it, they would donate $300 to RAICES, an organization that provides free and low-cost legal services to immigrants and refugees. 

Sometimes you gotta make yourself look stupid in the name of a good cause!

It's Monday, so most of us are probably feeling some kind of malaise or dissatisfaction. These pics and memes have been carefully curated to make you feel like someone's been cutting onions - and to remind you that life ain't always a huge bummer.
