Taylor Swift proved that she's more than just a pretty face when she donated $100,000 to flood victims at the local Red Cross in Cedar Rapids, Iowa earlier this month. The country sweetheart touched citizens of the town with her donation, and even gave the town a suprise concert.

"The people in this town have been through so much loss this year, and my heart goes out to them," Swift tells PEOPLE.
