It looks like Taylor Swift just donated a cool $50,000 to a young fan in serious need. According to Mashable, a GoFundMe page established to raise money for an 11-year old with leukemia got suddenly bombarded by donations credited to Swift earlier this week. 

Naomi Oakes, an 11-year old Taylor Swift fan from Arizona, was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia late last month and her family was quickly hit with corresponding medical bills. Naomi's uncle took to GoFundMe to start a campaign to raise money for the medical expenses and it looks like Swift pushed the fundraising attempt way over the top with her generous donation. Swift's donations come just days after Naomi's family shared a video of the Taylor Swift superfan using "Bad Blood" as her "theme song," this after news that she'd have to miss out on a planned Swift concert this summer due to her treatment. Apparently taking note of Oakes' positivity and strength, Swift swooped in and left a message with her GoFundMe donations. 

"To the beautiful and brave Naomi, I'm sorry you have to miss it, but there will always be more concerts," the message reads. "Let's focus on getting you feeling better. I'm sending the biggest hugs to you and your family."

Check out a video of Naomi fittingly coopting "Bad Blood" as her treatment theme and then watch her reaction to Swift's recent donations below.
