Taylor Swift Donates $50,000 to 11-Year-Old Fan with Cancer
Taylor Swift donated $50,000 to 11-ear-old fan with cancer.
Swiftie Naomi Oakes was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia on June 25 and learned that she needs aggressive treatment resulting in her not being able to leave the hospital for six to nine months.
The adorable girl chose Swift’s “Bad Blood” as her fight song.
Her family made an inspiring video telling Naomi’s story and her love for Swift– hoping to reach the singer. In the video, they ask the “Taylor Nation” to help spread the word on social media, and it was a success!
Two days after the video was uploaded to YouTube, Swift donated $50,000 to Naomi’s GoFundMe page writing, “To the beautiful and brave Naomi, I’m sorry you have to miss it, but there will always be more concerts. Let’s focus on getting you feeling better. I’m sending the biggest hugs to you and your family.”
A video was posted on YouTube of Naomi seeing Swift’s message for the first time.
She is sitting in her hospital bed with a huge grin on her face as she says, “I can barely breath. I seriously think I’m going to pass out,” bringing the whole room to laughter.
