Taylor Swift has been accused of exploiting her good deeds for positive publicity, but her gestures are generally personal and direct. She touches the lives of others and whether these acts of kindness are from the heart or a PR stunt, Swift makes her fans’ dreams come true.

1. She sent a fan a check for $1,989 to help pay off her student loan debt.

4. She gave all of the proceeds of her hit single “Welcome to New York” to New York City Public Schools.

5. After a tragic car accident, she donated to the family in need.

However, it’s not just money that Swift donates. She gives her time and effort to brighten the lives of sick fans.

6. She gave a concert to a six-year old fan battling Leukemia.


7. She also had lunch with a cancer-stricken fan and invited another fan battling cancer to the Academy Awards with her after he asked her to prom.

8. She even wrote a song entitled “Ronan” about a child dying of brain cancer and then donated the proceeds to fund cancer research.

She reaches out to fans and shows how much she appreciates their support and encourages them through social media.

9. For #Swiftmas2014, she sent fans personalized gifts and notes in the mail.

10. She also took the time to surprise a fan at her bridal shower.

11. Swift gathered fans and played them songs from her new album “1989” before it was released in what she called 1989 Secret Sessions

.

12. She gave a girl $90 out of her purse in Central Park to get Chipotle for the fan’s birthday.

13. She frequently uses her Instagram or Tumblr to reach out to fans with advice or compliments.


So, haters are gonna "hate hate hate hate hate" and try to say she's doing it for the spotlight, but Taylor Swift is just going to keep being sickeningly nice and spreading joy.
