Taylor Swift helps fan with extremely sweet gesture
Taylor told her 'get your learn on girl'
Last updated 13th Aug 2019
Taylor Swift is known for her huge hits, including this year's songs, 'ME!' and 'You Need to Calm Down', but over the years she has also helped out a number of fans in need.
According to a post on Instagram, a fan called Ayesha has been given $4,000 by Taylor to pay off her tuition fees. Ayesha revealed that her parents are on minimum wage, with her mum also suffering from kidney disease. This has left the family trying to take out a loan, to allow their daughter to attend college for another semester.
On hearing about the family's troubles, Taylor has come to the aid of her fan and transferred the money into her fan's account. A shocked Ayesha posted a photo confirming $6,386.47 Canadian dollars were transferred, with the message, 'Ayesha, get your learn on girl. I love you! Taylor'.
Over the years, Taylor has helped a number of fans. Last year, the pop star helped a heavily pregnant fan in Manchester who received an incredible donation from the singer. Taylor's fan Stephanie shared her heartwarming story to the public and fellow fans on The Swift Life app, about the pop superstar's selfless act of kindness.
Stephanie, who was homeless for much of her pregnancy, told how the singer invited her backstage. She went on to say she had been 'contemplating posting this story for a while'.
Continuing, 'What many of you don’t know is that for eight months of my pregnancy I was homeless. Long story short our first flat was condemned for health and safety reasons and we lost everything.'
Back in 2016, Taylor also surprised two fans, Max Singer and Kenya Smith, at their New Jersey wedding. Max’s sister who wrote to Taylor explaining that the couple had married in their mother’s hospital room, so she could be part of the occasion before she passed away.
