Taylor Swift makes $250K donation to families in need for holidays

Taylor Swift is the gift that keeps on giving.

The 35-year-old pop superstar quietly made a very generous donation to families in need ahead of the holiday season.

“Thank you @taylorswift13 for making our holiday season even brighter! Your kind and thoughtful donation of $250,000 means the world to our children and families,” said Missourian. Operation Breakthrough is a Kansas City-based education center. Published via X Saturday.

The post also includes a video featuring several of Swift's children thanking her for her support.

Since the Grammy Award winner wrapped up her Elas tour in late November, she's spent much of her downtime giving back to others.

Earlier this month, she visited a children's hospital in Kansas City with her boyfriend, Travis Kelce.

The “Lover” singer graciously took time to take photos and chat with the young patient.

But Swift's kind and charitable spirit goes back many years.

In 2019, the “Shake It Off” singer, who has supported the past two Democratic presidential candidates, donated $113,000 to an LGBTQ advocacy group in Tennessee.

In 2020, she also donated $13,000 to two mothers facing eviction amid the coronavirus pandemic. The number is also a nod to her favorite number, 13.

Earlier this year, Swift donated $100,000 to the family of her mother, who was killed during the Kansas City Chiefs parade after winning the Super Bowl. Kelce, 35, followed suit and personally donated to the two injured children.

But perhaps the “Blank Space” singer's most impressive contribution came in October of this year.

That same month, Swift, who was named the world's richest female musician with an estimated net worth of $1.6 billion, donated $5 million to Hurricane Milton and Hurricane Helen relief efforts.
