Jul 17, 2023, 5:29 PM

Regardless how you feel about Taylor Swift or her music, this is pretty cool!

The pop princess took over Denver for shows on Friday and Saturday at Empower Field at Mile High, but she didn’t just take the money and run…

Taylor made a donation to Food Bank of the Rockies on Friday before playing two sold-out stadium concerts in Denver.

Food Bank of the Rockies announced Swift’s donation and said it will allow it to purchase food for 75,000 meals.

Taylor Swift has been donating to food banks across the United States throughout “The Eras Tour.”

“We’ve been able to meet the increased demand thanks to the generosity of individuals like Taylor Swift. Her gift will help fuel our work across the Rockies and allow us to distribute more food to our communities. I was shocked and then thrilled by the news! We are grateful for her inspired support in answering the challenge of hunger.”
