Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have donated $26 million to various charities across the United States this week, Page Six is told.
In the days leading up to their highly anticipated wedding, which is set to take place Friday at New York City’s Madison Square Garden, the couple decided to give back in a big way.
Swift and Kelce — who together are reportedly worth an estimated $2.8 billion — contributed to City Harvest Food Rescue Center, Food Bank for NYC, New York Cares, Education Through Music, Answer the Call, Musical Mentors Collaborative and After-School All-Stars New York, all based in the Big Apple.

“We are incredibly grateful for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s generous $1 million donation to City Harvest,” CEO Jilly Stephens told us, referring to the contribution as “a love letter” to New Yorkers at an especially “critical time.”
Meanwhile, Education Through Music CEO Janice Weinman revealed to us that the bride and groom gifted the organization a “transformational” $2 million.
“This gift will help us reach more students, support more music teachers and ensure that music remains a meaningful part of a child’s core education, especially in schools where access to the arts is too often limited,” Weinman said.
Additionally, Swift and Kelce gave money to Hassenfeld Children’s Hospital at NYU Langone and MSK Kids for Child & Teen Cancer Patients at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

Dr. Selwyn M. Vickers, the president and CEO of MSK Kids, announced to employees via a companywide email the $1 million donation, marveling, “The gift to MSK Kids is part of a broader philanthropic effort by Taylor and Travis, who are supporting multiple organizations in honor of their upcoming wedding — which makes their generosity even more meaningful.
“I am moved that they have chosen to recognize MSK during this joyful time in their lives and grateful for their commitment to making a difference for young cancer patients.”

The pair also donated to the Children & Teen and Adolescents & Young Adult (AYA) programs at Children’s Mercy Hospital as well as Harvesters – The Community Food Network, both located in Kansas City, Missouri, which holds a special place in the Kansas City Chiefs player’s heart.
Notably, Kelce proposed to Swift in August 2025 in the backyard of his Leawood, Kansas, estate — which borders Missouri, where he also owns a home.
Given that the athlete was born and raised in Ohio, he and the pop superstar also contributed to After-School All-Stars Cleveland.
Moreover, the duo gave money to the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank, the Rhode Island Community Food Bank, The Store in Nashville and Helping Harvest in Reading, Pennsylvania.
Notably, Swift has properties in NYC, LA, Rhode Island and Nashville, where she got her musical start after she and her family moved from Pennsylvania.
“Incredibly grateful” Rhode Island Community Food Bank CEO Melissa Cherney disclosed to us that Swift and Kelce’s “unexpected gift” was to the tune of $1 million, which “will go a long way in helping [the organization] purchase and distribute the nutritious, culturally appropriate food that Rhode Islanders deserve.”

The 14-time Grammy winner and the three-time Super Bowl champ also donated to multiple nationwide charities, including Feeding America, the ASPCA, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library and Grammy in the Schools.
As Swifties recall, the singer-songwriter quietly donated to local food banks in all 51 cities on her record-breaking Eras Tour route. The tour, which solidified Swift’s billionaire status, hit five continents during its 21-month run.
She and Kelce, both 36, reportedly spent $3 million to rent MSG for three full days and an additional $160,000 on an over-the-top police presence at the arena as part of their special access events permit.
The celebs’ nuptials are set to kick off Thursday with a 100-person rehearsal dinner, followed by a larger celebration the next day with 1,000 guests — and performances by Stevie Nicks and Tim McGraw.
