Taylor Swift has once again shown her heart of gold by making a $100,000 donation to help a young girl battle cancer.
The pop superstar made the generous contribution Friday after seeing an Instagram post from a support page dedicated to Lilah, a young child battling a rare form of brain cancer.
The post mentioned how Lilah wished Swift could be “her best friend,” a sentiment that touched fans and clearly reached the singer herself.
Lilah’s GoFundMe page reveals that she was diagnosed with the disease when she was just 18 months old, and has since spent much of her life in and out of hospitals.
To help the family with mounting medical bills, another child battling cancer had started selling friendship bracelets, inspired by the Eras Tour trend, to raise money for Lilah’s care.
Swift’s $100,000 donation quickly became the top contribution to the fundraiser, and she even included a heartfelt message for the little girl under the “Words of Support” section.
“Sending a big hug to my friend, Lilah! Love, Taylor,” she wrote.
When fans discovered Swift’s donation online, they began to follow her lead.
Many decided to donate $13 each, a nod to the singer’s favorite song, turning the GoFundMe page into an outpouring of small but meaningful contributions from people around the world.
What started as an act of kindness from a global superstar has now inspired hundreds of fans to get involved, all united by a shared desire to bring some light to Lilah and her family during a difficult time.
