The 24-year-old singer has kept her promise as she has donated all proceeds from her track 'Welcome To New York City' to the NYC public school system.
As well as being New York City's Global Welcome Ambassador for tourism, Taylor Swift recently showed she also cares about the Big Apple's education department after donating a large sum of money to an array of inner city public schools.

After releasing her new single 'Welcome To New York City', from the album '1989', last October, the 24-year-old singer unexpectedly announced she plans on donating all proceeds made from the track to New York City public schools.
Obviously Swift didn't go back on her word, and on Tuesday (Feb 24th) officials from the Department of Education confirmed that the Grammy-winner has already given $50,000 to the NYC public school system.

"We're deeply appreciative of this kind gesture to donate her proceeds of the single 'Welcome to New York' to benefit NYC public schools," Devora Kaye, the press secretary for the department of education, stated.

"What makes New York City New York City is that it is unlike any city in the whole world," she said in a promotional video after being named New York City's welcome ambassador. "It's almost like it has its own heartbeat. You can find fashion that inspires you, art that inspires you, humanity that inspires you. Everywhere you look, it's impossible not to fall in love or be affected by something in New York City."
