Taking to her Twitter handle, the youngest Peace Prize winner announced that she created a TikTok account for her fundraiser and briefly introduced herself. Dedicating her time to her charity the Malala Fund, which was set up to help pay for the education of girls in Third World and war-torn countries. She says:
‘Hi, Tik Tok. My name is Malala Yousafzai. I am 23 years old and I’m a girl’s education activist. Some of you might already know me, you might have heard my UN speech, or might have read my book, ‘I am Malala. Some of you may not know me yet so I will introduce myself.
I am a recent graduate from Oxford University, I like shoes, comedy, reading books and I also do campaigning and advocacy for twelve years for education and safe quality of education for all girls around the world.’
She went on to urge viewers to donate to the fund on ‘Giving Tuesday’, a fundraising campaign in the US.
Post-thanksgiving, Malala shares a known hashtag ‘#GivingTuesday’ that stands for global generosity in order for people to donate to all-girls’ education. In return, she promises to answer any queries that her followers have for her.

With 130 Million girls out of school according to the fundraiser, Malala hopes for a better future. The donation ranges from $25-250 for people to help around the world.
