The event is dubbed, “Birthday with the Mahomies.” It will benefit 15 different charity organizations, with the minimum goal of collecting 1,500 donations of $15 in support of said charities. There will also be an online auction benefiting these charities.
Here’s the list of charity organizations involved:

“This is an awesome way to celebrate my birthday, by doing something meaningful and raising significant funds for our charitable partners,” Mahomes said in a press release. “I’m looking forward to having some fun and making a difference in the lives of others with the Mahomies!”
The event will be free to watch and streamed online on Wednesday, Sept. 17 at 7:30 p.m. CT. Some of the guests joining the event include actor Paul Rudd, musical legend Quincy Jones and various members of the Chiefs organization.
