Taylor Swift is no stranger to bringing joy to millions with her music. She has now won even more hearts with her generous donations to multiple food banks in the U.K. The 34-year-old pop sensation, arguably, one of the biggest star of this generation, has been making silent contributions to some UK stops on her Eras Tour for several weeks now.

Taylor Swift's donations generate over 10,000 meals in the U.K.

The Guardian interviewed Rich Jones who is the Chief Executive Officer of Liverpool’s St Andrew’s Community Network managing eleven food banks. He referred to Swift’s contribution as an amazing gift because they have spent most of their funds on top up food costs due rising prices and increased demand over time. In fact according to him, her donation covered twelve months’ worth of grocery store bills enabling them plan for overnight campaign activities.

Cardiff Foodbank took to Instagram to express their gratitude; they shared Taylor’s bracelet engraved “Thank you, Taylor Love, Cardiff Food Bank.” They labelled it as their wildest dream come true referring to the famous Taylor Swift song. Cardiff Foodbank CEO Rachel Biggs, speaking with the aforementioned news outlet, revealed that Swift had made the biggest single donation ever received by their organization.

Biggs added that this donation provided relief which is necessary for allowing food banks to establish a firm foundation that would enable them to effectively deal with poverty at its root causes offering a breathing space. Although Biggs did not give details on the amount of money donated, she stated its significance and the contribution generated, "1,200 people three meals a day, for three days – or 10,800 meals."
