Taylor Swift Donates To Fans Raising Money In Support Of People Of Color

Taylor Swift donated to fans who are raising money to help people of color in a local church.

A week ago, Yasmine Norman shared clips of her and Grace Norman. The two of them are racing funds to buy hair and skincare products for people of color in a local church. Two videos featuring the duo shopping for the products with Taylor’s song “Only The Young” playing in the background were shared online.

“I know that haircare and skincare for people of color can be both more expensive and harder to find in the stores," Yasmine said in the video.

The post caught the “Love Story” hitmaker’s attention and Swift made a donation. The artist sent $1,300 to Yasmine’s PayPal account.

“Yasmine and Grace, thank you SO MUCH for everything you’re doing to help people. Here’s a gift for this run, please let me know about any in the future! Love, Taylor,” the message read.

Yasmine shared snaps of Swift’s donation on Twitter to thank the singer.

“THANK YOU @taylorswift13 You amaze me @grace_norman27 and I will be doing a supply run in Minneapolis to help families in need, many who’ve been affected my the riots,” she wrote.

Last month, Swift surprised a Utah nurse who volunteered in New York to help Northwell Health's Long Island Jewish Medical Center treat coronavirus patients.

Whitney Hilton is a registered nurse at McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden, Utah. When she returned home for her 30th birthday, Swift sent her a merchandise bundle and a handwritten note to thank the frontliner for her service, Elle reported.

“I wanted to send you some presents and to let you know I am so grateful for you. I can't thank you enough for risking your life to help people and for spreading the message loudly that people need to hear about taking this seriously,” Swift’s note read.

“Also, I saw the photo of you from my show! Thank you for coming! I would love to give you a hug next time and thank you in person. With love and admiration, Taylor.”

Hilton, who was overjoyed with Swift’s birthday presents, also shared it on social media. She was so happy and felt the need to publicly thank Swift.
