Fundraising platform Tiltify released its Top 30 Fundraisers list for 2025, with VTuber-led campaigns accounting for about $1.956 million of the over $70 million total raised for nonprofits globally. Three VTuber campaigns made the list: Ironmouse's fundraiser for the Immune Deficiency Foundation ranked sixth with $1,376,362.80; Nimi Nightmare's Baby Bean's Charity Bash for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital ranked 17th with $361,042.03; and Mori Calliope and Koseki Bijou's "That's Wild?!" 24-hour charity stream for Wildlife Warriors Worldwide USA ranked 20th with $219,291.66. Tiltify CEO Michael Wasserman told VTuber NewsDrop that VTuber-led campaigns have grown year-over-year in both number and funds raised, and that the UK and Australia are strong regions outside North America for contributions. Wasserman attributed the growth to VTubers like Ironmouse making fundraising a visible part of their content, and noted that Tiltify's tools, including its API and incentives, are designed for digital interactions, making the platform a natural fit for VTubers.
Tiltify's Top 30 Fundraisers list for 2025 was released gradually over two months, with the full set of campaigns raising over $70 million. The three VTuber entries collectively raised about $1.956 million, or roughly 2.7% of that total. Wasserman said the platform has seen increasing interest from VTubers to advocate for causes, and that the audience is global, with strong contributions from the UK and Australia. He also noted that Tiltify's API allows VTubers to build interactive donation triggers into their streams. Nimi Nightmare's St. Jude fundraiser was her first appearance on the list, while Ironmouse has become a recurring presence. The "That's Wild?!" stream was a four-part event by the hololive English talents. Wasserman added that Tiltify is exploring additional regional payment gateways as the community grows, and that Alipay+ is already available through Stripe for charities that enable it. VTuber NewsDrop corrected an earlier version of its story that misstated the percentage of donations from VTuber campaigns.
