The best in Hollywood, some might say, now that DoSomething.org has named Swift the Most Charitable Celebrity for the second consecutive year.

A press release by that organization cites Taylor's work with the homeless youth, as well as her very generous gift to the Nashville music scene: a $100,000 donation to the Nashville Symphony, bequeathed on Swift’s 24th birthday.
