Taylor Swift donates $100,000 to family of mom killed in Super Bowl parade shooting
In a poignant display of compassion, Taylor Swift has extended a helping hand to the family of Lisa Lopez-Galvan, a victim of the tragic Super Bowl parade shooting in Kansas City. Despite the massive security presence of over 800 police officers, the assailants managed to inflict devastating harm, leaving 22 people injured and claiming the life of the beloved local DJ, Lisa Lopez-Galvan. Swift’s generous donation of $100,000 to the GoFundMe set up for Lopez-Galvan’s family has significantly surpassed the initial $75,000 target, bringing the total to over $174,000. The pop sensation, who is currently in Australia for her Eras Tour, shared two heartfelt contributions of $50,000 each, conveying her deepest sympathies and condolences to the grieving family.
Lopez-Galvan, known for hosting “Taste of Tejano,” was a revered figure in the Latino community of Kansas City, described by her close friend Manny Abarca as an “incredible leader.” Abarca expressed his determination to turn Lopez-Galvan’s tragic passing into a catalyst for positive change, vowing to advocate for legislative measures to address gun violence in the city and state. Swift’s impactful gesture not only provides crucial financial support to the grieving family but also sheds light on the broader issues surrounding gun violence, emphasizing the need for collective efforts to prevent such senseless tragedies.
