Taylor Swift, over the weekend, met Jacob Hill, an eight-year-old boy with autism who she helped get a service dog, reports EOnline.com. The 28-year-old singer also donated $10,000 towards Jacob’s service dog Reid and gave him and his family front row seats and backstage passes.
Jacob’s mom Allison Hill wrote about the incident on the Autism Speaks’ Facebook page, “Taylor Swift donated $10,000 towards my son’s service dog. She gave us front row seats and backstage passes to her concert this past weekend. Taylor Swift was so kind. She said Reid was a big puffball and so cute. She was especially awesome with Jacob (sic).”
Allison recalled, “After the picture was taken, the flash scared him (Jacob) so he snuggled right up to her and her sweet smile says it all (sic).”
