Most of us have heard the word "influencer" at this point. Normally, influencers use social media for advertising products and services, but they often utilize their social influence for the greater good. Their message is crucial, whether they are promoting a nonprofit or taking part in a social challenge to contribute to assisting others.

While popular social media influencers have a sizable following, there are a few influential people who make a great impact by giving back.

Well-known for her wacky internet baking videos,19-year-old New Zealander Jade is a true example of authenticity in influencers. She uses her Tourette's syndrome to spread awareness of the condition and opens out about it to make others laugh while educating them.

 Her prominent participation in Camp Twitch, a Tourette's Association of New Zealand fundraiser, demonstrates her commitment to the subject.

 Jade beeps, curses, insults, and loses control of her limbs, head, and neck in her case. Most days, she and her family can laugh it off.

 On other days, it makes her uncomfortable and hurts. On her bad days, when her tics take over, all she can do is cry as her body jerks without her will. Jade has shared her happy and sad moments with her admirers.

 One of such conditions, Tourette's syndrome, has been shown in Hollywood films because it gives a character the freedom to utter offensive things. The joke has always been that. Jade concluded that this was her joke and narrative.
