It was no ordinary morning for the kids at the St. Mark Child and Family Development Center on Wednesday, as Kansas City Chiefs’ quarterback Patrick Mahomes stopped by to read a book, work on an art project and ultimately pass on some lessons about life.
The St. Mark Center, which is operated by United Inner City Services, is an early-learning environment that strives to bring high-quality practices to one of the lowest-income zip codes in Jackson County.
The visit, which was made possible through a partnership with Coca-Cola, was just an example of how Mahomes intends to pay it forward in Kansas City.
