Taylor Swift is donating millions of dollars to help those affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
Feeding America CEO Claire Babineaux-Fontenot released a statement on Wednesday, confirming Swift’s donation.
“We’re incredibly grateful to Taylor Swift for her generous $5 million donation to Hurricanes Helene and Milton relief efforts,” the statement read. “This contribution will help communities rebuild and recover, providing essential food, clean water, and supplies to people affected by these devastating storms.”
Babineaux-Fontenot continued to thank Swift for standing with them “to end hunger and for helping communities in need.”
The superstar’s donation comes just weeks after Helene made landfall in Florida as a deadly Category 4 hurricane.
Helene left miles of destruction across six states, causing catastrophic flooding and leaving hundreds dead.
Now this week, Milton is also making landfall in Florida and CNN reports many meteorologists are predicting the storm to be one of the most destructive on record in the area.
Variety reports that Swift has made similar contributions in the past, including a $1 million donation towards natural disaster relief after storms impacted Tennessee in December 2023.
