Taylor Swift is stepping up to support those affected by the devastating wildfires in California, and she’s encouraging her fans to join her in lending a hand. On Thursday afternoon, the Grammy-winning singer took to her Instagram Story to share how she’s helping, urging her followers to donate to organizations that are working tirelessly to assist affected families and communities.
“The fires in California have devastated so many families, and it’s been heartbreaking to see these stories unfold,” Swift wrote, reflecting on the destruction and loss caused by the ongoing crisis. “There are also many amazing organizations and groups banding together to help these communities rebuild,” she continued.
As part of her contribution to relief efforts, Swift provided a list of 10 organizations she has donated to, hoping her followers will be inspired to do the same. The organizations she mentioned include:
- 21 Los Angeles California Community Foundation Fund
- Direct Relief
- Greater Los Angeles Education Foundation
- Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles
- Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation
- Los Angeles Regional Food Bank
- Los Angeles Unified School District Education Foundation
- Emergency Relief Fund
- MusiCares
- Pasadena Educational Foundation
The “Anti-Hero” singer’s post is part of a larger wave of celebrity support for the LA wildfire relief efforts. Other high-profile figures who have also contributed include Travis Kelce, Leonardo DiCaprio, Paris Hilton, Jamie Lee Curtis, Eva Longoria, Lady Gaga, and many more. Additionally, several musicians like Katy Perry, Stevie Nicks, Billy Idol, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers will perform at a benefit concert for the fires on January 30th at the Inglewood Dome and Kia Forum in Los Angeles.
Swift’s generous gesture comes just as her relationship with Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce continues to make headlines. The couple, who started dating publicly in September 2023, has been incredibly supportive of one another. Kelce has shared that Taylor fully encourages him to continue playing football, and her unwavering support has played a major role in his success.
Meanwhile, Swift, who has recently settled in Nashville to spend more time with Kelce, has been balancing her career and personal life, with the “Eras Tour” wrapping up. While rumors of Kelce’s retirement have circulated due to his increased presence at Swift’s concerts, he has stated he plans to evaluate his future after the NFL season. Swift, however, has remained a constant support for him, attending many Chiefs games and offering her encouragement.
As Swift continues to use her platform for good, her actions speak volumes, showing her commitment to making a positive impact not just in the world of music but in the lives of those affected by tragedies like the California wildfires.
