?Speechless?: Making $200,000 Purely for Charity, Patrick Mahomes & Teammate Marquez Valdes-Scantling Awe Softball World, While Travis Kelce Misses Friends

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver and Super Bowl LVII Champion, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, recently hosted a charity softball game, showcasing his talents on the baseball field alongside his teammates, including quarterback Patrick Patrick Mahomes. Travis Kelce, however, was unable to attend the event due to other commitments and he had major FOMO.

Interestingly, the motivation behind Valdes-Scantling’s philanthropic endeavours can be traced back to his childhood experiences, particularly in St. Petersburg, Florida. Growing up in this community, he witnessed the poverty and hardships faced by many people. These observations fueled his desire to make a positive impact and led him to establish the Humble Beginnings Foundation. Through this foundation, Valdes-Scantling has been able to raise a significant amount of money to support economically disadvantaged areas.

MVS raises $200,000 through softball

On Friday, June 9, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, a wide receiver for the Kansas City Chiefs, hosted a charity softball game to support his newly established foundation, Humble Beginnings Foundation. Valdes-Scantling was joined by his teammates in welcoming the Chiefs Kingdom to Legends Field. Patrick Mahomes shined at the charity softball game, hit three homers, including a grand slam, and won the home run derby. Mahomes also displayed his switch-hitting ability by hitting a left-handed homer. The game raised significant money for Valdes-Scantling?s Humble Beginnings Foundation to help economically disadvantaged areas.

In a heartwarming gesture, WR Marquez expressed his gratitude and appreciation after successfully raising funds for a charitable event: ?Speechless. Grateful. I don?t know why I suspected any less from this amazing city with this amazing fan base. But what an experience. 200k raised to help benefit the community that supports the chiefs religiously. This was such a great time for the guys and the best fans in the league. Huge thank you to everyone that was a part of my first annual charity softball game!?

Since Travis Kelce misses his friends for the day, he replied to Marquez’s post: ?????????? IM GOIN NEXT YEAR!!!?
