All the mentioned campaigns invoke generosity and inspire the audience to take positive actions. #Likeedreams is a flagship campaign that focuses on discovering and supporting talented Likee users who aim to create a positive impact on society with their dreams. #KillTheChill was launched in early January 2020 to appeal to the users to donate winter wear and quilts for homeless people. Whereas, #1km1day became famous for its unique approach of encouraging people to adopt a healthy lifestyle and stay fit.
