18 February 2024<\/time>\n<\/p>\nTravis Kelce has donated $100,000 to two children who were shot at the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory parade.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Travis Kelce has donated 100k<\/p>\n
The 34-year-old tight end has handed over two separate $50,000 donations to the Reyes family to help their daughters, aged eight and 10, who were injured on Wednesday (14.02.24) at a mass shooting in Union Station, Kansas City, Missouri, while the team were celebrating their victory over the San Francisco 49ers in the flagship NFL game last Sunday (11.02.24).<\/p>\n
Travis made the donations on a GoFundMe page set up to help the youngsters, who suffered leg injuries in the tragedy, via his Eighty-Seven and Running Foundation, with the Hollywood Reporter confirming their authenticity.<\/p>\n
The description on the GoFundMe page read: \u201cThe girls were celebrating with many members of their family when they were senselessly injured.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe ask that you continue to keep the family in your prayers as the girls work to recover. <\/p>\n
\n“This fund will help provide vital financial support for their physical and mental recovery, any leftover funds will be saved for their college funds. All fund are being deposited into a bank account established just for the girls. Any amount is appreciated.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThe page was aiming to reach $100,000 but at the time of writing, thanks to Travis’ generosity, they have almost reached double the target.<\/p>\n
\nThe sportsman’s generosity comes after his girlfriend Taylor Swift made a $100,000 to another GoFundMe page set up in the wake of the shooting.<\/p>\n
\nThe ‘Anti-Hero’ hitmaker gave two $50,000 donations eight minutes apart to a fundraiser to benefit the family of Lisa Lopez-Galvan, who lost her life at the parade.<\/p>\n
\nShe wrote: \u201cSending my deepest sympathies and condolences in the wake of your devastating loss.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nTwo juveniles have been charged in connection with the shooting, which left a total of 22 people injured, aged between eight and 47 years old.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
