As Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce celebrate their nuptials over Fourth of July weekend, the couple made sure that several different charities have cause to celebrate as well.
In light of the Thursday (July 2) news that the pop star and Kansas City Chiefs tight end had contributed $26 million to a slew of charities across the United States, many of those organizations have shared public messages of thanks. One of them, the Grammy Museum Foundation, posted a statement praising the soon-to-be-newlyweds for their “transformative gift” that will “help expand our mission of bringing music education to students across the country,” while New York Cares said it was “enchanted” by their generosity and added, “Thank you for making our mission a part of your love story.”

“We’d like to send a heartfelt thank you to @taylorswift and @killatrav for their very generous donation to our food bank just prior to their big wedding day,” wrote Harvesters in Kansas City. “The two of them have incredibly big hearts and have shown up to support not only us but many charities over the years. We feel so lucky that they make the conscious effort to invest in hunger relief and the beautiful community we call Kansas City!”
Those are just three of more than a dozen thank-you notes released by charities Swift and Kelce selected to benefit from their pre-wedding donation. The 14-time Grammy winner’s rep announced the act of goodwill earlier on Thursday, sending a list of the organizations who received parts of the sum. Notably, all of the cities featured have personal significance to the couple, from Reading, Pennsylvania, and Cleveland — where Swift and the football player are from, respectively — to Nashville and Kansas City, where they started their careers.
The pair also donated to a number of causes based in NYC, where they are set to celebrate their wedding on Friday at Madison Square Garden.
