Brittany Mahomes expands food allergy initiative in Kansas City
The 15 and the Mahomies foundation is collaborating with FARE to provide safety training and resources for local families and businesses.
Brittany Mahomes and Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes are expanding their foundation's efforts to support people in Kansas City, according to the Times of India.
The foundation, 15 and the Mahomies, collaborated with Food Allergy Research & Education (FARE) in 2024 to focus on food allergy education, safety training, and local support resources.
Kansas City Current co-owner Brittany Mahomes said the goal is to ensure local families have the resources needed to manage food allergies safely. She added that the partnership empowers area restaurants and community food banks with training through FARE.
The initiative is informed by the personal experience of the Mahomes family, as their oldest children, Sterling and Bronze, have dealt with food allergies since birth. Joe's Kansas City Bar-B-Que recently became the first FARE Approved Restaurant in Kansas City.
FARE CEO Sung Poblete said Brittany's journey mirrors the experiences of many, noting her willingness to share her family's story has inspired thousands of patients and families.
Beyond food safety, 15 and the Mahomies has worked on the Read for 15 initiative to encourage children to read for at least 15 minutes every day.
