Taylor Swift is in the giving spirit this Christmas.
The superstar, 36, has donated $1 million to both Feeding America and the American Heart Association, the two charities announced Tuesday.
Feeding America CEO Claire Babineaux-Fontenot confirmed Swift’s gift and thanked her “for standing with families facing hunger.”
“We are incredibly grateful for Taylor Swift’s $1 million gift to Feeding America,” Babineaux-Fontenot wrote on Instagram. “This holiday season, her continued support is a powerful reminder of what’s possible when we unite to end hunger.”
“When we join together alongside people facing hunger, we can make sure families have a full table this holiday season and beyond,” she concluded.
Feeding America supports millions of families with more than 200 food banks across America. Swift has donated to the nonprofit several times before, including when she gave $5 million last year for relief during Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton.
During her sold-out Eras Tour, Swift also regularly made donations of to food banks in cities where she performed across the world, giving tens of thousands of meals to people in need at each stop.
Shortly after Feeding America announced Swift’s generosity, the American Heart Association revealed the singer donated $1 million to the organization in the name of her father, Scott Swift, who underwent quintuple bypass surgery over the summer.
“Taylor Swift’s remarkable generosity will create lasting change far beyond its financial value,” American Heart Association CEO Nancy Brown said in a press release. “Her family’s experience with cardiovascular disease is all too common, affecting nearly half of American adults. Her commitment to supporting her father will make so many others aware of the need to take their own heart health seriously, strengthen prevention efforts, and improve controllable risk factors—ultimately helping more people live longer, healthier lives.”
The pop icon has made previous headlines for her generosity, with the most recent instance being highlighted in Disney+’s End of an Era.

The docuseries showed Swift giving $197 million to her staff in bonuses after her tour grossed more than $2 billion in ticket sales. While the amounts of the individual checks were not shown, her team members’ shocked reactions spoke to the huge paychecks they were given.
“Bonus day is so important, because setting a precedent with The Eras Tour is so important to me, because people who work on the road, if the tour grosses more, they get more of a bonus,” Swift said in the episode while writing letters to her team.
