Taylor Swift donated incredible gift to people of Liverpool – and didn’t tell anyone
As her Eras tour continues to travel across Britain, Taylor Swift is leaving a lasting impression on Swifties who travel far and wide to see her in action.
However, the Bad Blood singer left a very special gift for the people of Liverpool – and didn’t tell anyone about it.
She performed three sold-out shows to a crowd of 53,000 at Anfield Stadium earlier this month, breaking the all-time attendance record.
But her impact will be felt by more than just her fanbase as it was revealed she has made a ‘generous donation’ to The St Andrew’s Community Network.
The not-for-profit organization provides eleven food banks and eight community food banks in north Liverpool.

And it wasn’t Taylor’s team that announced her donation, but Rich Jones, the CEO of the community network, who decided to bring the kind gesture to light.
He told the Liverpool echo that the donation will make a ‘big difference’ for the people the organization helps.
Charlotte, a fundraiser for the network, added: “We can’t thank Taylor enough.
‘So many people are struggling at the moment and the need for all our services has unfortunately increased in recent years.
“So to have someone like Taylor support our efforts and choose to help people in crisis in Liverpool means so much and will make a huge difference.”
St Andrews Community Network also took to X (formerly Twitter) to thank the star.
They wrote, “We are SO excited that @taylorswift13 donated to us after three incredible shows
“While we hope for the day when everything has changed and our support is not needed, donations like Taylor’s make a difference. Thank you for leaving your legacy!’

During her show at Anfield on Friday June 13 (pictured above), Taylor beamed as she told the crowd: ‘Liverpool, you just made me feel so amazing. That was really cool, it went to my head. You made me feel very powerful.”
The charity supports around 36,000 people every year, ‘liberating people from poverty’ and working to create ‘lasting change’ in the communities they serve.
The Clubmoor-based network also helps people struggling with debt and provides advice on social benefits.
It comes after the pop star also made a significant charity donation while in Edinburgh.
On social media earlier this month, the Edinburgh Food Project said it had been informed before her first concert in the city that she would be ‘making a donation to support food banks across the city’.
The charity told MailOnline it has agreed not to reveal the exact amount donated by Swift, but said it will ‘make a big difference to the people we support.’
Director Bethany Biggar said: “We are delighted that Taylor has decided to support food banks and leave a lasting impact on Edinburgh.
“Things are really tough for a lot of people right now, so it’s nice to see someone like Taylor spreading such positivity.”
During her show at Anfield on Friday, June 13, Taylor beamed as she told the crowd: ‘Liverpool, you just made me feel so amazing. That was really cool, it went to my head. You made me feel very powerful.
‘This weekend is the first time I’ve ever had the chance to play in Liverpool. And you have already made a stunning impression on me.
‘I’m having more fun on this tour than I have in my entire life!’
Taylor will kick off the first of her three London Eras tours on Friday, performing in front of 90,000 people, before returning for a further five nights from August 15 to 20.
The singer’s eight sold-out shows at Wembley are predicted to give London’s economy a £300 million boost and her performance in the capital is the most nights a solo female artist plays at the stadium on a single tour.
With a total of 640,000 tickets sold, Greater London Authority expects fans to spend an average of £471 per person.
