TikTok has introduced new features to help creators raise donations for organizations they care about. These features allow creators to personalize their fundraisers with custom names, goal amounts, cover photos, and personal stories. Shareable stickers are generated for each fundraiser, which can be shared across TikTok videos, posts, and LIVEs to help reach fundraising goals faster.
