Taylor Swift donates $5 million to help hurricane relief efforts

Taylor Swift has made a significant donation toward helping those affected by Hurricanes Milton and Helene.

On Wednesday, Feeding America CEO Claire Babineaux-Fontenot said in a statement posted to the organization’s Instagram page that they’re “incredibly grateful” for the superstar singer’s $5 million donation toward hurricane relief efforts.

The contribution will allow the organization to provide essential food, clean water and supplies to people affected by the devastating storms.

The donation came as Milton barreled toward Florida’s Gulf Coast. The hurricane made landfall Wednesday evening as a deadly Category 3 storm near Siesta Key.

Just two weeks ago, Helene made landfall in Florida as a deadly Category 4 hurricane. The storm carved a 500-mile path of destruction across six states, causing catastrophic flooding and leaving more than 230 people dead in its wake.
