Taylor Swift Donates $5M to Support Hurricane Relief Efforts After Milton and Helene’s Devastation
Taylor Swift has made a major impact on the ongoing relief efforts for Hurricanes Milton and Helene by donating US$5 million. The donation was highlighted in a statement by Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, CEO of Feeding America, who expressed immense gratitude for Swift’s generous contribution. According to the statement posted on Instagram, the funds will provide essential food, clean water, and other supplies to support families affected by the hurricanes’ destruction.
Hurricane Milton is currently making its way toward Florida’s Gulf Coast, with meteorologists warning it could be one of the most devastating storms on record. Meanwhile, Hurricane Helene struck Florida just two weeks ago as a Category 4 storm, leaving a trail of catastrophic flooding across six states and claiming over 230 lives. Swift’s donation will assist communities as they rebuild and recover from these deadly events.
Swift joins Dolly Parton in supporting hurricane relief efforts. Parton recently announced a $1 million donation to the Mountain Ways Foundation and partnered with Walmart to provide flood relief in the Appalachian region. Her companies will also contribute an additional $1 million toward flood recovery.
