Taylor Swift donated $5 million to the victims of the `Milton` tornado.
Feeding America, the American network of food banks, announced on social media a generous donation of $5 million by the performer. These funds will be directed toward the recovery of affected areas and providing food, water, and necessary resources to those in need, reports Yahoo. Hurricane Milton, though weakened, still poses a threat and hit Florida's west coast on Wednesday evening. The Category 3 storm left over 2 million homes without power and brought destructive winds capable of causing significant damage.
The hurricane caused dangerous storm surges along much of the Gulf Coast, including densely populated areas like Tampa, St. Petersburg, Sarasota, and Fort Myers.
Notably, this is not the first time Swift has helped those affected by devastating natural events. In 2023, she donated $1 million to the Tennessee relief fund after a tornado. Zoomboola.com reminds that recently Taylor Swift surpassed Rihanna in earnings for 2024. The 34-year-old singer's net worth exceeded $1.5 billion.
