Taylor Swift has donated $250,000 to Operation Breakthrough, a Kansas City-based organization that is helping families in need this holiday season. Swift didn’t say a word about the donation publicly, but the organization which received her generous gift did. “Thank you, @taylorswift13, for making our holiday season shine even brighter!” wrote Operation Breakthrough via Twitter. “Your kindness and thoughtful 250K donation means the world to our children and families.”

Operation Breakthrough, a Kansas City-based organization, provides assistance to local families in need. According to their website, “Operation Breakthrough provides a safe, loving and educational environment for children in poverty and empowers their families through advocacy, emergency aid and education.”
Swift’s local gift, a result of her increased time in the city since dating Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce in 2023, was praised by Operation Breakthrough, who also shared a video montage of children thanking her. “Thank you Taylor for your support,” a young girl said in the video. Swift and Kelce recently visited a children’s hospital in Kansas City, meeting young patients and taking photos with them, marking their second foray into the season of giving. The video also featured children’s artwork in appreciation.
Earlier this year, Swift gave away $5 million to help with recovery efforts after the devastating hurricanes of Hurricane Milton and Hurricane Helene in Fall 2024. In February 2024, Swift donated $100,000 to the Kansas City community after a shooting occurred at the Chiefs’ Super Bowl parade. Kelce also gave through their GoFundMe. In December 2023, Swift gave $1 million dollars to help with the deadly hurricanes that struck Tennessee.
