It takes advantage of the popularity of short form video platforms such as TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Youtube Shorts. Causes create their accounts on Aidtree.

For each one time video, the cause will receive $60, for a monthly subscription, they will receive $20 per month.

Aidtree Fundraising Policies
Aidtree gives a new option to businesses/posters to create videos at ease and at the same time promote themselves by networking and fundraising for local community groups.

In gratitude and return, your cause will create a video for the business’s/donor’s use. Upon registration for donation, the donor will upload video content and/or information consisting of images, short clips, and text they wish to have in their video. At this time, your cause would create a video utilizing the donor’s content and/or public domain (or royalty-free) images to create a video promoting the donor’s message.
a cause is supervised by an administrator, the one who is the leader of the cause, who also assigns video creation projects. Video fundraisers are responsible for the creation of their content as well as any complaints from the donor.
