Taylor Swift has generously donated $100k to the Tennessee wildfire relief

Taylor Swift has put $100,000 towards the relief efforts of the wildfires in Sevier County, Tennessee which have caused the evacuation of thousands of people from the area.

The Academy of Country Music has matched Swift's donation to add another $100,000 to the fundraising efforts. Kenny Chesney and the Country Music Association will also give $250,000 each.

In December 2015, Swift was named the most charitable celebrity for a fourth year in a row. That year she gave a $50,000 donation to a young leukemia patient and helped New York City schools bag 25,000 new books.
