Taking to his X account, Mr Beast shared the purpose of his trip to Ghana. In a long message, he noted that he was on a mission to help children out of child labour on cocoa farms in West Africa.

He noted that as part of the project, they had started giving out free breakfast at schools, hinting that many children were willing to attend classes once they knew they would be fed.

Sharing the progress of the project, Mr Beast noted that the attendance in schools was already up by 10 per cent.

"To help get kids out of child labour on cocoa farms in West Africa we started giving away free breakfast at schools (kids are more likely to go if they know they will be fed) and one school’s attendance is already up 10% in the first week 😮."

I’ve surrounded myself with the greatest minds and I feel like I know more about child labor in Africa than I do YouTube now lol. Over these next 12 months I hope to make a lot of progress and bring you all along for the journey. I fear if someone with my influence can’t fix this, no one can. I’m dedicated to this mission."
