Taylor Swift helps Pakistani immigrant by funding her education

Close

TORONTO (Dunya News) – Famous pop-star Taylor Swift presented her female Pakistani immigrant fan with $6,386,47 to continue her studies.

Ayesha Khurram, a student of University of Waterloo, met Taylor Swift a year on a concert in Toronto. After a year, unaware of the blessing, Taylor Nation, LLC transferred a total of $6,386,47 to her account after she saw Ayesha on internet asking for help to pay her tuition fee.

"When I posted, I was just like venting. It’s hard to pay off tuition. It’s really expensive," Ayesha told international media. "One of my friends online was like, ‘You should drop your PayPal so we can help you out,’ and I was like, ‘That’s not a bad idea, I should totally do that.’ And then I did. And next thing I know, I literally have no more problems anymore."

Ayesha received an online notification about a money transaction by the Taylor Nation, LLC which showed a total of $6,386.47 transferred to her with a note from Swift saying, "Ayesha, get your learn on, girl! I love you, Taylor!"

Ayesha expressed that it was a very special moment for her, "I can’t put it into words. It was insane. I could not believe it". I literally could not believe it. It was like this guardian angel that kind of popped in and said, ‘Hey, you have troubles, but now you don’t have troubles anymore,’” explained Khurram from her Mississauga home.

She went on to share, "It’s more than what I asked for. She is just so generous. I literally cried myself to sleep last night. This is the kind of thing you don’t expect. You don’t even dream about it. In no corner of your brain are you thinking, ‘Taylor Swift is going to send me money and help me out.’"

Ayesha is studying accounting and financial management at the University of Waterloo. Recent cuts to Ontario’s student loan program meant that she would be short on funds for school, her parents both work minimum wage jobs and it was already quite tough making ends meet in the household.

Ayesha happily expressed, "It feels like this huge burden has been lifted off me. I literally feel so happy. I’m going to go out. I’m going to eat a burger. I’m going to watch a movie. I’m just going to celebrate, like fully. I can’t believe this has happened to me. "She is literally my favourite person on the planet," Ayesha added.
