Taylor Swift signed guitar auctioned off for a good cause
Original story below:
A signed guitar from Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is up for auction and the proceeds will go to a school that helps empower Arizona children in foster care.
Shade Tree Academy announced the raffle on Feb. 7, saying the money raised will go toward the nonprofit that's described as a "trauma-focused school providing a supportive and healing environment to help children that have been impacted by foster care thrive in school and in life."
Each raffle ticket is $100.
Susan Mulhearn, director of Shade Tree Academy, says the guitar, which was played during the Eras Tour, was donated to the school.
They've never held a raffle before to raise money, Mulhearn said, so this being the first item they raffle off is a big deal for the school.
