Taylor Swift generously donated to a food bank in Detroit, Michigan.
Taylor Swift is making a difference in local communities on her tour
The Grammy winner has donated to urban food poverty charities on her “Eras Tour,” and most recently to the Gleaners Community Food Bank in southeastern Michigan while she played two nights at Ford Field in Detroit on Friday (6/9/23) Saturday (06/10/23).
Quoting the “Shake It Off” hitmaker, the food bank wrote on Facebook, “No matter what happens in life, be good to people.”
The post has been added; “Those words are true today as Taylor made a surprise donation to the Gleaners during their #TSTheErasTour stop in #Detroit.
“Thank you for making a difference and empowering children and families with nutritious food!”
In a statement to local press, Kristin Sokul, a Gleaners representative, said, “Taylor Swift’s support of food banks across the country comes at such a critical time for so many emergency food providers – when resources are running out and needs are rising.”
“Your generosity goes beyond dollars for meals.
“The space at her heart will empower households throughout Southeast Michigan to lead happier, healthier lives and highlight the important issue of food security so others who can help can be inspired by her example.” The whole The Gleaners team is so grateful for this incredible gift.”
The generous sum was not disclosed.
At the start of the tour, Taylor donated enough money to cook 125,000 meals for food bank users in Tampa Bay, Florida.
The pop megastar completed three nights at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, and Feeding Tampa Bay praised Taylor as a “hero” for helping them feed people in west-central Florida suffering from food insecurity.
The nonprofit tweeted, “Thank you @taylorswift for being a HERO and supporting Feeding Tampa Bay’s mission to end hunger by 2025!”
“Your generosity will put over 125,000 meals on the table!”
The 33-year-old musician kicked off The Eras tour on March 17 in Glendale, Arizona, and was revealed to have made a surprise donation to the Arizona Food Bank Network as part of her commitment to making a positive impact had the congregations during their tour.
Terri Shoemaker, vice president of external relations at the Arizona Food Bank Network, told Azcentral.com, “It’s not every day you get a call from someone who works in PR for Taylor Swift, so we were skeptical at first, but fortunately it turned out to be absolutely real.
“Donations like these from very prominent figures like Taylor Swift make it clear that hunger is still a problem in America. There is and it is a problem across the country.” Recognizing this is so important and also serves to set an example of how organizations in the community can be supported…”
The bosses of the Three Square food bank, which helps needy families in Nevada, announced that they had also received a donation from the musician.
