In December 2015, Taylor Swift made a notable donation of $50,000 to the Seattle Symphony. This contribution supported the Link Up education programme, which introduces orchestral music to young students. The funding also benefitted the musicians’ pension fund as part of the symphony’s broader mission. Over the years, Link Up has successfully engaged thousands of children through interactive music experiences.
