Can Jackson Mahomes' charity work change public opinion about him despite his controversial past?

“[Patrick] Mahomes donated $1,500 for every touchdown in the regular season [2023] to Boys and Girls Clubs of America.” This was in addition to the $1.625 million he donated as he was nominated for the Man of the Year award. Looks like generosity is engraved in the Mahomes clan. Where on the one hand, Patrick Mahomes supports individuals including children through his 15 and the Mahomies Foundation, brother Jackson Mahomes doesn’t shy away from giving back to the community as well. This time again his generous actions have caught the eye. But wait! It isn’t for the 15 and the Mahomies.

After Patrick’s philanthropic pursuits, his brother Jackson Mahomes also joined a non-profit organization, RMHC-KC (Ronald McDonald House Charities), to help the needy. Jackson shared an Instagram story recently in which he can be seen wearing a black apron of RMHC Kansas City, helping the sick children, and doing the needed chores for the organization. Sharing his experience, the popular TikToker wrote a caption along with the story, “Great day volunteering at the @rmhckc!!

This Kansas City-based organization “keeps families near their sick children while they get the care and supportive services they need,” as per their IG bio. Be it serious health concerns like heart transplants or diseases like cancer, RMHC helps kids fight these life battles. And so far, this organization has provided care and comfort to more than 107,000 families.

Besides Jackson Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs mascot, KC Wolf, too has joined this organization to help the children. As per the RHMC’s social media profile, KC Wolf can be seen in multiple pictures posing with children and families of the organization’s attendees.

And now, Jackson’s presence and philanthropic works have surely made the day for the little ones as well as might have given a proud moment for mother Randi Mahomes and brother Patrick Mahomes. However, this isn’t the first time Jackson has shown his helping side to the nation. Even when the KC Chiefs needed him the most, he was there to help!

Jackson Mahomes worked as a hero that day!

When Kansas City was celebrating its 2024 Super Bowl victory, a mass sh–ting shook the entire city, causing multiple harm to the fans. However, the Chiefs’ popular figures helped people as much as they could, and among them, one name stood out loud– Jackson Mahomes.

Have an interesting take?

According to a female fellow attendee, during the incident, she and her friend “were stuck hiding with him [Jackson] at Union Station by the trains and he was taking care of a child who lost his parents and helping him calm down.” Hence, that X user informed that she has “found a newfound respect for Jackson Mahomes.” This incident hailed him as a hero who did what was expected of him at that moment.

Not only that! Jackson has also shown his presence at Children’s Mercy Hospital. Last year, as well as this year too, “he joined representatives from CommunityAmerica Credit Union delivering “Happy Kits” of craft supplies, books and other children’s goodies to the hospital.” Despite the controversies surrounding the younger Mahomes brother, all of these charity works of Jackson Mahomes clearly show how dedicated he is toward the community.
