Variety KC is teaming up with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ mother.
The charity organization announced on Monday that it was partnering with Randi Mahomes for the inaugural Heart & Serve pickleball tournament.

This event will feature Randi Mahomes and 18 other professional sports moms and wives. Variety KC provides children who have special needs and disabilities with vital medical equipment for mobility, sensory, communication, safety, therapies and more.
Heart & Serve will be an accessible, family-friendly event.
“We are thrilled to partner with Randi Mahomes and other incredible athletes’ families for this unique event,” Chief Inclusion Officer and Executive Director of Variety KC Marc Harrell said. “This is a wonderful chance for the community to come together for a day of fun, sportsmanship, and philanthropy. By attending Heart & Serve, you’re not only supporting a great cause but also contributing to a brighter future for Kansas City children with disabilities.”
The tournament will showcase pickleball matches, interactive family activities, and opportunities to engage with stars on the court.
