US nonprofit network of 200+ food banks feeding millions
Swift and Kelce have donated a total of $26 million to 20 charities across the United States ahead of their reported Madison Square Garden wedding, including groups in New York, Kansas City, Nashville and Rhode Island. The gifts span food banks, hospitals, education and animal charities, with national organizations also receiving support. The wedding at MSG is reportedly planned for Friday, with security and venue setups underway.
Federal SNAP reform has tightened eligibility and shifted costs to states, triggering a sharp drop in participation and putting pressure on food banks. Arizona records the largest decline, with state processes becoming more burdensome and delivery times longer as programs adjust. Projections warn of continued reductions without congressional action.
