For the past week, Louisiana has been going through yet another tragedy. South Louisiana was hit by torrential rain for several days to go along with bad drainage systems in a lot of areas which has caused a major flood. Louisiana has declared a state of emergency, and the flooding has caused thousands to lose everything they had and atleast 13 people are dead. Taylor Swift heard about the news and donated $1 million to help with the flood relief. A statement was made by Swift to CNN, “We began The 1989 World Tour in Louisiana, and the wonderful fans there made us feel completely at home. The fact that so many people in Louisiana have been forced out of their own homes this week is heartbreaking. I encourage those who can to help out and send your love and prayers their way during this devastating time.”.
