Taylor Swift may be the most charitable celebrity of 2015. The 25-year-old songstress is supporting another close cause to her heart and a fellow Grammy award winner, the Seattle Symphony Orchestra. The Seattle Times reports that Swift decided to donate a whopping $50,000 to the symphony to go toward its two programs:Link Up?a music-education program for elementary school students?as well as its musicians' pension funds. So what inspired the country-turned-pop star to donate? A performance of John Luther Adams' "Become Ocean," which was commissioned by the Symphony, premiered in 2013 and eventually went on to win a Grammy.
