Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.
Taylor Swift has donated a staggering $100,000 to the family of the mom shot and killed at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade earlier this week, The Post can confirm.
A GoFundMe fundraiser created following the tragic death of Lisa Lopez-Galvan, 43, received a pair $50,000 donations from the 14-time Grammy winner on Friday.
“Sending my deepest sympathies and condolences in the wake of your devastating loss. With love, Taylor Swift,” the message under each donation read.
Both donations were signed by the “Cruel Summer” singer.
The initial goal of the fundraiser, set up Thursday afternoon, aimed to raise a total of $75,000.
Swift is currently performing her first of three shows in Melbourne, Australia, which kickstarts a total of seven shows Down Under.
The donations were sent at around showtime Friday.
Lopez-Galvan, the community radio disc jockey and mother of two, was celebrating the Chiefs’ big win with her family when shots rang out in the crowd.
She was struck by the gunfire and died on the street near the west side of Union Station, her brother Beto Lopez, told The Kansas City Star.
The shooting left 22 others injured, including nine children.
According to friends and family, Lopez-Galvan’s adult son also suffered a gunshot wound, and one of her two cousins, believed to be minors, was injured in the chaos.
Lopez-Galvan lived with her husband and two children in Shawnee, just an hour southeast of where the shooting occurred.
She worked as a DJ for community radio station KKFI and as the co-host of “Tejano Tuesday,” which focused on Hispanic music.
Swift’s boyfriend, Chiefs’ tight-end Travis Kelce, said he was “heartbroken” over the fatal shooting that occurred at the end of the parade.
“I am heartbroken over the tragedy that took place today,” Kelce wrote on X Wednesday. “My heart is with all who came out to celebrate with us and have been affected. KC, you mean the world to me.”
