Taylor Swift Donates $5,000 to Dead Fan’s Family

Singer leaves condolences on GoFundMe page of Katie Beth Carter

Taylor Swift showed some love to a fan who recently died by donating $5,000 to the girl’s family.

Swift left a heartfelt note and $5,000 on the GoFundMe set up in honor of Katie Beth Carter, who died in a car accident over Labor Day weekend.

“Kimi, No words could express how sorry I am for your loss,” Swift wrote on the page, addressing Carter‘s sister, who had set up the campaign. “I know that you will keep Katie’s memory alive. Please know how much I am thinking of you and saying a prayer for your family. All my love, Taylor.”

The GoFundMe was created “as an opportunity for people to show love and support to her parents Jason and Amy Carter, and siblings Jacob and Kimi Carter, by helping to cover medical expenses and the cost of her arrangements.”

Swift is known for being close to her fans, sometimes giving them presents around Christmas or surprising them with visits to her home to listen to unreleased music. There are several documented cases of the singer donating money to fans and causes in need.

She previously donated $50,000 to a cancer patient, donated $1 million to Louisiana flood victims and gave Kesha $250,000 during her legal battle with Dr. Luke.
