MrBeast vs. LDS Church: Who’s Really Helping Africa? 💧
Did you know MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson) just built 100 water wells in Africa—no strings attached? Clean water directly to people who need it most. 💦

Now, let’s talk about the LDS Church. When Apostle Elder Neil Andersen visited Zimbabwe and met with Vice President Mohadi, he was asked to help with clean-water wells. What did the Church offer instead? A temple. Not water. Not aid. Just a religious building for members who pay tithing and meet strict requirements.
Andersen even claimed, “We are not a wealthy people.” Really? The Church reportedly holds $200 billion in assets—enough to provide for every person in Zimbabwe multiple times over. Yet instead of using its wealth for immediate humanitarian needs, it builds temples and prays for blessings.
Contrast that with MrBeast, who acts immediately and effectively—no politics, no preaching, just help.
