Eventually, she turned turned GoFundMe, an American crowdfunding platform. This was when the Artist of the Decade came to the rescue.

Swift donated a whooping amount of £23,373 (or PHP1,485,141.46) with a note stating, “Vitoria, I came across your story online and am so inspired by your drive and dedication to turning your dreams into reality, I want to gift you the rest of your goal amount. Good luck with everything you do! Love, Taylor.”

Mario came from Portugal and moved to London 4 years ago even though she English fluency. Despite the language barrier, she aced all her examinations.

Based on Mario’s GoFundMe page, her father has already passed away and her mom is staying on Portugal. Her target fund is £40,000, including university accommodation and living costs for four years.
