Mahomes family’s generous donation to Kansas City hospital to help children with cancer
The Kansas City Chiefs’ star and his mother made the humanitarian gesture to the struggling children
The three-time Super Bowl champion, Patrick Mahomes, made a noble humanitarian gesture to a Kansas City hospital that looks after children who battle against cancer as the quarterback bids to help ease their suffering.
The news comes after the 28-year-old and his wife revealed they are expecting their third child, a daughter, on social media as he funded a new play area for cancer survivors at the Children’s Mercy Hospital in Missouri.
One child was already spotted playing as the hospital expressed their gratitude to the family for their significant donation by posting to Instagram, “Thankful that the Mahomes family donated this [play area] to the hospital, Brooke loves the play area.”
And his mother, Randi Mahomes, also added that the decision from the pair was “beautiful” as she was brimming with pride at the man she’s raised, who has become known for his charitable efforts.
Mahomes’ selfless history
Ahead of the 2023 NFL season, Patrick and Brittany Mahomes donated $1.625m dollars and entered a partnership with the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, in association with Make-A-Wish, to fund 10 children facing terminal illness.
As a result, Patrick Mahomes was nominated for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award in 2023, which he went on to win after being crowned Super Bowl champion in February.
“As a dad of two,” Mahomes said in a recipient statement. “It means the world to me to be able to provide opportunities and support to underserved youth.

“And my family and I are so humbled to be in the running for an award that means so much to the Chiefs organization and to our community.”
Collecting the prize allowed him to win another $250,000 to donate to a charity of his choosing for his display of professionalism and use of his platform and opportunities as a force for good in the world.
