Fox 4: 15 and the Mahomies Foundation awarding $250,000 in new grants to 15 local charities

By Brian Dulle

On Thursday it was announced that the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation will provide $250,000 in the form of 15 grants to 15 charitable organizations from the Greater Kansas City area through its signature program, 15 for 15.

This annual program supports 15 youth initiatives that focus on education, the arts, athletics, children with disabilities, after-school programs, social justice and more. Children's Mercy was the recipient of a grant from the foundation. 

“The work these charities are doing in the community deserves recognition and support,” said Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. “While we are not able to celebrate their impact in-person this year, I salute their commitment to helping others.”

The 15 and the Mahomies Foundation has already provided over $1,000,000 in direct grants and program support since its inception on April 1, 2019.
