Taylor Swift recently made two $50,000 donations to the family of Lisa Lopez-Galvan, the woman who was killed during the mass shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade. She made the donation via the GoFundMe page, leaving a note in the Words of Support section that read, “Sending my deepest sympathies and condolences in the wake of your devastating loss. With love, Taylor Swift.” As of Friday morning, the fundraiser has exceeded its goal of $75,000, raising a total of $205,012 that the page says will go toward funeral and memorial costs.
The 43-year-old mother of two was shot in the abdomen at the end of the parade in Kansas City, Missouri, on Wednesday February 14, 2024. She was a radio DJ, working at the local station KKFI 90.1 FM. She died during surgery.
"This fund has been set up to benefit the family of Lisa Lopez-Galvan. Lisa was celebrating the Chiefs Super Bowl Victory parade when senselessly killed. She is survived by two children and her husband of 22 years," the GoFundMe read. "She was an amazing mother, wife, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend to so many. We ask that you continue to keep her family in your prayers as we grieve the loss of her life. This fund will help provide vital financial support to her family as they process this unthinkable tragedy. Any amount is appreciated."
