Patrick Mahomes Sends Donation to the Family of Kimber Mills to Honor the Brave Teen Who Saved Lives Through Organ Donation After Being Taken Off Life Support
Kansas City, Missouri – October 23, 2025
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has once again shown that leadership extends far beyond the football field. After learning about the heartbreaking story of Kimber Mills, the 18-year-old Alabama high school cheerleader who was tragically shot and later became an organ donor, Mahomes decided to step forward in a quiet act of compassion that has deeply moved the NFL community.

The two-time MVP reportedly came across the story through a viral video showing hundreds of students lining the hospital hallways for Kimber’s “Honor Walk.” Touched by her courage and the grace of her family, Mahomes reached out to express his condolences and offer support.
Speaking in an emotional moment during a media availability on Wednesday, Mahomes said:
“I can’t imagine the pain Kimber endured, having to suffer that kind of violence from someone she didn’t even know. Her family must be incredibly strong to make such a decision. Out there, someone gets to live again because of their courage.”
Those close to the Chiefs star said Mahomes was particularly moved by the symbolism of a young life giving others a second chance — something that resonated deeply with his own values of faith, resilience, and community.
A source from the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation confirmed that Mahomes made a $100,000 donation to the Mills family to honor Kimber’s memory, along with a personal note thanking them for turning tragedy into hope.

In his message, Mahomes reportedly described Kimber as “a hero not because of how she died, but because of how her spirit continues to give life.”
While the gesture was never meant to draw headlines, it has quietly reminded fans that even in moments of grief, humanity can bridge hearts — from Kansas City to Alabama — through simple acts of kindness and empathy.
