Taylor Swift gave a very generous donation to a 13-month-old boy named Ayden, who was diagnosed with cancer this week.

The singer donated $50,000 to a GoFundMe fundraiser for Ayden, who is the nephew of Kim "Toshi" Davidson, one of Taylor's dancers on the 1989 World Tour.

According to the GoFundMe page, Ayden's diagnosis came after he was in ICU for more than two weeks. After his mother Lindsey had to be by his hospital bed for the entire time, she was unfortunately let go from her job. The money from the fundraiser will allow Lindsey to focus on being with Ayden, and also contribute to medical costs as they investigate what kind of cancer it is. 

Taylor wrote on the GoFundMe page "Baby Ayden, I'm lucky enough to perform with your uncle Toshi on tour...All of us are praying for you and your mama and sending so much love your way. Love, Taylor."

Thanks to Taylor's donation, the fundraiser has reached far beyond their $20K goal, with a total of $53,675 having been raised as of Wednesday evening.

We can't keep up with how many good things this lady does!
