Taylor Swift\u00a0continues to do her part for charity.<\/p>\n

The singer, 34 \u2014 who is currently on a break from her\u00a0Eras Tour\u00a0dates until mid-October when she heads to Miami to perform at the Hard Rock Stadium on Friday, Oct. 18 \u2014 reportedly\u00a0made multiple food bank donations\u00a0during her U.K. shows earlier this year.<\/p>\n

One person who is thankful for Swift\u2019s generosity is Rachel Biggs, the CEO of Cardiff Foodbank. The pop superstar performed at the Welsh city\u2019s Principality Stadium on June 18.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0BBC<\/em>\u00a0reported Swift\u2019s donation to the food bank had provided 925 people with emergency food parcels, with the charity confirming it had managed to buy \u201cone and a half articulated lorries full of food\u201d with Swift\u2019s gift.<\/p>\n

Cardiff Foodbank shared the article on Sept. 30, writing on\u00a0Facebook, \u201cWe are incredibly grateful to Taylor Swift not only for her generous donation, but for shining a light on the global issue of poverty.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have spent Taylor\u2019s generous donation and are grateful to the continued support of the general public,\u201d the charity added.<\/p>\n

The post concluded by noting, \u201cAs we head into the busiest time of the year, if you\u2019re able to do so please donate food or money to help us make sure that no one in Cardiff goes hungry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cardiff Foodbank didn\u2019t immediately reply when contacted by PEOPLE.<\/p>\n

The charity\u2019s latest post comes after the team shared a message thanking Swift on Instagram on June 24.<\/p>\n

Referencing the singer\u2019s 2014 hit \u201cWildest Dreams,\u201d Cardiff Foodbank wrote in the caption, \u201cWell, this is beyond our Wildest Dreams!\u00a0\"\ud83e\udef6\"\u201d alongside some Swiftie-style friendship bracelets which spelled out \u201cThank you Taylor, Love Cardiff Foodbank.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA HUGE thank you to Taylor Swift for deciding to make a generous donation to support our work at Cardiff Foodbank after The Eras Tour came to Cardiff last week,\u201d the post added at the time.<\/p>\n

\u201cTaylor has helped put the spotlight on the ever-growing need for food banks \u2013 and we\u2019re so grateful for her support\u00a0\"\ud83d\udc9a\",\u201d the caption included.<\/p>\n

Charity CEO Biggs previously told\u00a0The Guardian<\/em>\u00a0in June that they were planning to buy \u201can articulated lorry full of food and other most-needed items to supplement our emergency food parcels\u201d following the donation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis will provide the weight equivalent to feeding 1,200 people three meals a day, for three days \u2013 or 10,800 meals. This will be 2.5 weeks of what we typically distribute,\u201d she added of the plans at the time.<\/p>\n

Swift was also said to have made generous donations to food banks in Edinburgh and Liverpool during her U.K. Eras Tour stops.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
