Patrick Mahomes has long been recognized for his victories on the football field; but beyond football he’s made notable efforts off it to positively affect children through 15 and The Mahomies Foundation. Now State Farm – worth an astounding $134.9 billion – has announced their collaboration with Mahomes’ foundation to promote children’s wellness and health.
State Farm announced their partnership through an exclamatory post to social media, proclaiming their delight with Mahomes joining Team StateFarm: “We’re so delighted to welcome Patrick Mahomes onto Team StateFarm! His community involvement through 15 and Mahomies benefits children greatly; therefore we pledge to donate towards his efforts so he may carry on his good works,” wrote State Farm in their post.
The announcement coincided with an event held on October 28th, 2024, at the Loews Kansas City Hotel. Although specific details of the gala remain scant, it is known that something significant took place 13 miles away in Independence, Missouri, related to Mahomes’ efforts. The Chiefs quarterback, noted for being the fastest to reach 30k yards, has been a staunch supporter of the Boys and Girls Clubs. In recognition of his contributions, a club in Independence has been renamed the 15 and the Mahomies Unit.
Jason Roth, President and CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Kansas City, expressed gratitude towards Patrick and Brittany Mahomes for their support. “This investment by Brittany, Patrick, and the foundation is more than just a donation; it’s about ensuring the clubs’ ability to provide a stable and supportive environment for young people every day,” Roth mentioned.
The efforts by the Mahomes to impact the community positively have not gone unnoticed by family members either. Jackson Mahomes, Patrick’s brother, took to Instagram to commend his sibling, sharing a photo of them together at the event with a caption that read, “Keep doing great things bro! @patrickmahomes.”

Mahomes Foundation hosted their 5th Annual Gala and it provided many heartwarming moments, evident through social media posts by Mahomes with Brittany who was pregnant at that time. It showcased Mahomes commitment to their city and future along with State Farm’s dedication of community well-being initiatives.
As the Kansas City Chiefs extend their winning streak this season, attention continues to focus on how sports figures like Patrick Mahomes can use sports achievement for greater good of society outside the playing field. Support from entities like State Farm has allowed him to demonstrate this power more directly; making each win all that much sweeter!
