Taylor Swift:

As everyone knows, Taylor Swift is currently touring a majority of her discography during her world tour, “The Eras Tour”. By the time the Era Tour is set to wrap up, Swift will have visited 53 cities creating an economic boom at each stop. During her two concerts in Detroit held at Ford Field back in June 2023, Swift gave a reported “generous donation” to a local food bank, Gleaners. This is something that Swift has been quietly doing at each of her stops, donating up to 40,000 pounds of fresh produce in each city. This has prompted an increase in donations to the food banks long after Swift’s buses leave cities. (Photo of Swift playing in Detroit in June: Scott Legato)
