TABLE OF CONTENTS

TO CHIEFS FANS, FAMILY & FRIENDS Chiefs Fans, Family and Friends, The 2019 Chiefs season was one of the most memorable in the history of the franchise. After 50 years, the Kansas City community is once again home to the Super Bowl Champions.

One of the great joys of my life was celebrating our Super Bowl LIV victory with all of you at the parade in February. The strength and passion of the Chiefs Kingdom was on full display. It was a well-deserved celebration of the best fans in the National Football League and an unforgettable day in the community we love.

Part of the mission of the Chiefs is to “Unite Our Community,” and we are proud to share with you in this report some of the many ways our Chiefs family joined together throughout the NFL’s 100th season. While our team was working toward a historic achievement on the field in 2019, our players, coaches, and staff remained dedicated to serving the communities of our fans throughout the Chiefs Kingdom.

One of the highlights of our community efforts in the NFL’s 100th season took us back to where it all began for the Chiefs in Kansas City. Over the course of the year, our players, coaches, and staff hosted several events in neighborhoods near the former site of Municipal Stadium – the original home of the Chiefs.

Chiefs staff took part in a day of service over the summer to help beautify Lincoln College Preparatory Academy, which sits adjacent to the old stadium site. Additionally, a brand-new, turf field was constructed at Lincoln College Prep through a grant from the Chiefs and the NFL Grassroots Foundation. Last fall – for the first time in more than 60 years – the Tigers hosted a home football game at their school. Thanks to the hard work of our staff and the dedication of our great community partners, we are seeing a rejuvenation in and around the first “home of the Chiefs.”

HEALTH & WELLNESS

As we look back on the past season, I want to sincerely thank you – both for the personal commitment you make to this community and your ongoing support of the Chiefs. From the Chiefs Charity Game and Red Friday, to hoisting the Lombardi Trophy in Miami and through the streets of downtown Kansas City, the 2019 season was truly one to remember on and off the field. We look forward to sharing more memories with you for many seasons to come.

Go Chiefs!

GUADALUPE CENTERS Since inception, the Kansas City Chiefs have strived to positively impact the community. We attempt to foster and improve our community through hard work, dedication and the cultivation of positive relationships. Most importantly, we aim to exemplify the legacy Lamar Hunt left behind. The Hunt Family Foundation and the Chiefs have continued his legacy and passion of serving the community through our multitude of holiday programs throughout the season. These programs positively impact the lives of those we are fortunate enough to encounter throughout Chiefs Kingdom.

“

You work hard every day and then something like this happens, and you just can’t believe it.

- Judith Pacheco Perez

In 2019, the Chiefs partnered with Kansas City Southern for an unforgettable week of holiday giving at the Guadalupe Centers. For more than a century, the Guadalupe Centers has strived to improve the quality of life for people of all ethnic backgrounds. In 1919, the Guadalupe Center became one of the country’s first social service agencies for Latinos. Today, the National Register for Historic Places, notes the Guadalupe Centers as the longest continuously operating agency serving Latinos in the United States.

The relationship between the Chiefs and the Guadalupe Centers began more than two decades ago. In the mid1990s, the Guadalupe Centers was the recipient of the annual Chiefs Charity Game, receiving tens of thousands of dollars to fulfill its mission and continue serving the people of Kansas City. In 2018, the Chiefs teamed up with KC Southern to aid the Guadalupe Centers with a donation of $60,000 to the family support program – the largest gift ever made to the program. This donation was given in conjunction with the Chiefs scheduled Monday Night Football game in Mexico City in which KC Southern was a presenting partner due to its operations throughout Mexico and its headquarters in Mexico City.

For the second year in a row, the Chiefs were selected for the NFL’s Mexico City game, and in lieu of their Monday Night Football game south of the border, the Chiefs and KC Southern teamed up once again in 2019. Kansas City All-Pro safety, Tyrann Mathieu and defensive back, Juan Thornhill, joined the fun, surprising one family of six at the Guadalupe Centers with baskets full of toys, games, cold weather gear for the months ahead and holiday food to enjoy. This was only the beginning of a life changing afternoon for Judith Pacheco Perez and her children. Together with KC Southern, the Chiefs gifted Judith and her family with a check for a year’s worth of groceries and utility bills.

This moment was one of several that the Chiefs focused on at the Guadalupe Centers prior to their international trip to take on the Los Angeles Chargers at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City in order to make a difference for the Hispanic community right here in Kansas City. Chiefs Rookies, Nick Algretti, Alex Brown and Jody Fortson led dozens of children in a Play60 drills at Guadalupe Centers Middle School as a reward for their academic performances. To conclude the week, the Chiefs and KC Southern gifted the Guadalupe Centers with a check for $20,000, furthering the Chiefs commitment to serving the Hispanic community in Kansas City.

CITY YEAR In the fifth year of a partnership with City Year Kansas City, the Chiefs and the Hunt Family Foundation continue to support the academic attainment and empowerment of students at Central Middle School. Guided by the leadership of City Year Board Chair and Chiefs President, Mark Donovan, City Year continued to deepen its impact on the lives of students across Kansas City in schools challenged by the persistent inequity in our education system.

At Central Middle School, nine City Year AmeriCorps members supported 400 students throughout the course of the school year. The Chiefs collaborated with City Year to provide additional events and programs to reward students for their achievements. These additional opportunities ranged from a tour of Arrowhead Stadium followed by a Madden game day with four Chiefs wide receivers to a leadership session teaching students the importance of regular attendance and positive relationships. Last school year, 77% of City Year math students at Central Middle School who started the year off-track (D or F grade) improved to an on-track math grade (A, B or C) by the end of the school year.

“The incentives and opportunities the partnership between the Chiefs and City Year has provided for students is unparalleled.”

– Central Middle School Vice Principal, Casey Welch

MID-CONTINENT PUBLIC LIBRARY SUMMER READING PROGRAM The Chiefs are committed to increasing youth literacy throughout all of Chiefs Kingdom. As part of these efforts, the Chiefs have supported the Mid-Continent Public Library Summer Reading Program since 2015. Summer readers who participate in the program can earn Chiefs preseason tickets, VIP passes to training camp and receive other Chiefs-themed reading materials. Since the Chiefs began their support in 2015, the program has increased participation by 15% overall, with the annual impact once again reaching over 35,000 local youth throughout the 2019 Summer Reading Program.

Here in Chiefs Kingdom, we will always champion the power of literacy. Thanks to visits at various schools and youth centers in support of reading initiatives, including a collaboration with the Mid-Continent Public Library Summer Reading Program, the team’s efforts both promote enthusiasm and stress the cultivation of reading skills to support growth in reading levels amongst the area’s future leaders.

SO UPER B OWL OF CARING For the 11th-consecutive year, the Chiefs have been a national sponsor of the Souper Bowl of Caring. Our Chiefs Community Caring Team members teamed up with Harvesters to #tacklehunger during the Souper Bowl Week of Caring. Each year, the CCCT packs BackSnacks for children to combat weekend hunger.

Since the partnership began, the Chiefs have delivered more than 25,000 BackSnacks throughout Chiefs Kingdom.

The Chiefs Kingdom Food Drive provided more than 265,000 meals in 2019, bringing the six-year total from the annual drive to more than 1.4 million meals donated. Throughout the month of November, fans were encouraged and invited to support the cause by making donations at local Hy-Vee stores as well as bringing their non-perishable food donations to the October 27th game against the Green Bay Packers. Fan support, in addition to collaboration with Harvesters and Hy-Vee, allowed the Chiefs to make a powerful stride to combat food insecurity in the Kansas City area.

The Chiefs Community Caring Team, including Bobby Adamson and other Chiefs staff members, packed “BackSnacks� for local children in support of the Souper Bowl of Caring.

TOYS FO R TOTS

The Children’s Place has served the Kansas City community for more than 40 years, proving to be a safe haven for children who’ve experienced abuse, neglect or other traumatic events in their life. Its mission is one the Chiefs are familiar with, as The Children’s Place served as the Chiefs Charity Game beneficiary from 2015-2017. The continued partnership between the organizations has allowed The Children’s Place to build a new, larger facility to support its young community.

Partnering with the United States Marines for the last 54 years, the Chiefs welcomed Toys for Tots into the family at Arrowhead Stadium once again last season. The decades-long partnership with the United States Marines is the longest continuously running relationship of its kind between an NFL franchise and a military branch.

Calling on Chiefs Kingdom’s generosity last season, the club was able to collect 4,127 toys. With last year’s donation, the grand total of the Chiefs Toys for Tots collection over the last 11 years has surpassed 38,168 toys.

The Red Coaters play a crucial role in bringing joy and happiness to the children of Kansas City during the holiday season. With their dedication and perseverance, the club was able to raise over $10,000 in monetary donations to support Toys for Tots. In addition, the Red Coaters continued their annual tradition of donating bicycles, collecting 60 this past year. Both initiatives are not only dear to Chiefs Kingdom but are yet another example of the ongoing commitment to supporting our Armed Forces and the youth in the community.

BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS The Kansas City Ambassadors have teamed up with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Kansas City for many years, assisting the organization in its mission to clear the path to a child’s best possible future by matching them with a caring, adult mentor in a one-to-one friendship. The Ambassadors recently extended a multiyear partnership to sponsor Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Kansas City by donating a total of $100,000 over the next three years. This follows a $50,000 donation to the program on behalf of the Hunt Family Foundation and the Ambassadors in 2018, which was the first of its kind by a group of former players as part of the NFL’s Inspire Change social justice initiative.

The Kansas City Chiefs have continued outreach efforts within the health and wellness spectrum to make Kansas City a healthier community. In 2019, the Chiefs made a commitment to the wellbeing of the youth in Chiefs Kingdom by launching a Chiefs FLAG pilot program presented by GEHA throughout the Kansas City metro area. This program is part of the Chiefs efforts to promote flag football, the fastest-growing team sport in the United States over the last three years, to the youngest Chiefs fans and to keep them active in their everyday lives.

The Chiefs FLAG pilot program was first launched in the Olathe (Kansas) School District. The program was incorporated into all levels of the district at Olathe Northwest High School, Chisholm Trail Middle School and Meadow Lane Elementary School. Dozens of students donned Chiefs jerseys and strapped on their flag belts, but this was just the beginning. This past fall, the Chiefs introduced programing to all Olathe elementary schools and impacted nearly 10,000 students throughout the district.

“

Our partnership with the Chiefs has helped to raise the quality of our flag football program and connect with more kids throughout the K.C. region.

- Garry Linn, YMCA of Greater Kansas City, Senior Vice President of Operations

Students at four Lee’s Summit (Missouri) elementary schools also got in on the action of Chiefs FLAG. Lee’s Summit, Summit Pointe, Pleasant Lea and Hazel Grove schools participated in the pilot program which is part of the franchise’s commitment to providing opportunities for children to engage with the Chiefs year-round.

The Chiefs plan to continue these efforts at schools throughout the metro, and with enough community partner and volunteer support, these programs could become commonplace in Kansas City area schools.

However, Chiefs FLAG isn’t just in school buildings. The Chiefs partnered with the YMCA of Greater Kansas City for a youth flag football opportunity for children beginning at age five. These flag football participants receive exclusive Chiefs jerseys and footballs as well as encounters with KC Wolf and Chiefs Cheerleaders.

The benefits extend beyond the gridiron as children have the opportunity to improve their technique, build social skills, gain confidence and develop leadership abilities all while learning the game of football. Nearly 5,000 youth athletes participated in Chiefs FLAG/YMCA programming in 2019.

The Chiefs have a long history of supporting youth football within the community and the new Chiefs FLAG program is the next step in that commitment. In addition to several on-site events the Chiefs host annually, such as USAF Coaching Clinics, youth camps, and flag tournaments, 2020 will see Chiefs FLAG programing introduced throughout several metro youth sports leagues. This next evolution of Chiefs FLAG is set to impact an additional 10,000 youth athletes in our community.

In 2019, the club increased activation with local special needs groups, including YMCA Challenger, Special Olympics Kansas & Missouri, and Chiefs Ability Camp with the Recreation Council of Greater KC. In September, 50 Special Olympians from Kansas & Missouri along with YMCA Challenger athletes were surprised with customized Chiefs jerseys as they participated in a specialized skills camp led by Chiefs rookies on the field at Arrowhead Stadium.

The Chiefs have always strived to promote and expand involvement in youth football from the Pee Wee to the high school ranks. Not only does this provide excellent athletic instruction, but it also focuses on teaching young athletes healthy living habits and personal development skills. The club uses a variety of programs to reach youth football players, including the Chiefs Youth Football Field as well as through a collaboration with USA Football and its Heads-Up Football initiative. Each week, we honor those who lead the charge with the High School Coach of the Week fueled by Gatorade, a joint initiative with the Chiefs and the NFL.

YO U T H T R A D I T I O N Honoring youth traditions is one of the primary objectives of the Kansas City Chiefs organization. This is a way for the Chiefs to connect with their youngest fans and to welcome them to Chiefs Kingdom. Thousands of children visit Arrowhead Stadium on gameday and beyond annually. The Chiefs Sports Lab has become the stomping grounds for students of all ages. Children are also involved in dozens of activities throughout the season with a chance to interact with current Kansas City Chiefs players. This provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the young children and their families. These highlights can be seen through a variety of different activities, including the Helmet Walk at Chiefs Training Camp and the Youth Tradition recognition of a young football team prior to every home game at Arrowhead Stadium.

Kansas City Ambassador John Lohmeyer guided young athletes through the organization’s Hall of Honor during the Legends Community Youth Camp.

SUPPORTING OUR NEIGHBORS The Chiefs have always valued the importance of encouraging those around us. We support various initiatives throughout Chiefs Kingdom. Be it through awareness programming, the Braden’s Hope Calendar shoot, TeamSmile, visiting the Don Bosco Senior Center, or something as simple as donating blood, the Red and Gold strive to make a difference for those in need.

C R U C I A L C AT C H Three years ago, the National Football League and the American Cancer Society (ACS) decided to expand their efforts in the fight against cancer by creating the “Crucial Catch: Intercept Cancer” campaign. This initiative was designed as a call to arms to move towards unprecedented levels of early detection and risk reduction for all screenable cancers. Utilizing the vast and influential network the NFL provides, Crucial Catch encourages the education of healthy lifestyles and the reduction of cancer risk.

Moved by the message the NFL’s Crucial Catch initiative conveys, members of the Chiefs Community Caring Team, including the Kansas City Ambassadors, visited the American Cancer Society Hope Lodge – Kansas City with members of The University of Kansas Health System. Residents of the Hope Lodge had the opportunity to participate in a gameday “pep rally” while getting manicures, massages and playing tailgate games. This is just one way the Chiefs honored cancer survivors last season.

Last October, the Chiefs welcomed seven local survivors and their families to the practice facility where they enjoyed lunch, watched practice and met players. Before the day was over, the survivors were surprised by the announcement that they each would be recognized at the club’s game against the Houston Texans on October 13th. Each of the survivors from The University of Kansas Health System represented one of the screenable forms of the disease – breast, colon, cervical, childhood, general, lung and prostate. Since the League began its partnership with the ACS in 2009, more than $20 million has been raised for cancer research.

GIRL SCOUTS The Chiefs have long held a strong belief in empowering and uplifting those around them. In realizing their civic responsibility, the Chiefs work to strengthen the community and the people that have so passionately supported them for decades. This commitment touches a variety of individuals, including military members and their families, public servants and the arts community, to name a few. The Chiefs also fulfill this duty through their work with local Girl Scouts by providing a community for troop members to continue their diligent work.

In 2014, the Chiefs pioneered a patch program with Girl Scouts of Northeast Kansas and Northwest Missouri. This was a first-of-its-kind program in the NFL. The partnership with the Girl Scouts has now evolved into a multi-patch approach. The Chiefs hold multiple events throughout the year for members to earn their respective patches.

“

Our Girl Scouts value and highly anticipate the innovative programs and experiences made possible by the Chiefs.

- Joy Wheeler, CEO, Girl Scouts of NE Kansas & NW Missouri

The Arrowhead Takeover event began in 2016 as a way to build female empowerment in young troop members. At this annual event, the Chiefs host 200 Girl Scouts for an activity night at Arrowhead Stadium emphasizing careers in sports. The Girl Scouts who attend this event earn their Arrowhead Takeover Patch for their sash.

Girl Scouts can earn two additional patches when their troops visit the Chiefs Sports Lab and the Arrowhead Art Collection. The Chiefs Sports Lab hosts over 2,000 local Scouts (Girl Scouts, Cub Scouts, Boys Scouts) for educational tours at Arrowhead Stadium each year. The Chiefs Sports Lab Tour includes a visit to the Sports Lab, located inside Arrowhead Stadium, where Scouts can earn their Play60 patch by indulging in the health and wellness activities within the Lab. The Arrowhead Art Collection (AAC) Tour includes art-centric events, including the Create-A-Franchise Workshop, and Scouts earn their AAC Patch.

In 2018, Chiefs linebackers joined Girl Scouts for an afternoon of exploration in the Chiefs Sports Lab. This past year, 150 local Girl Scouts were invited to The University of Kansas Health System Training Complex for the “Scouts Skills Camp.” The girls were able to train at the Chiefs indoor practice facility with team members from Kansas City Glory of the Women’s National Football Conference, a women’s full-contact, 11 vs. 11 tackle football league.

150 additional Scouts participated in the inaugural “Prepare to Play” camp, which was held at the indoor practice facility. These scouts learned proper training techniques from the National Athletic Trainers Association and Chiefs athletic trainers. The troops were surprised with a visit from Super Bowl LIV champion Tyrann Mathieu, who spent his morning teaching the girls his ways of preparing to play.

Girl Scouts are also part of multiple elements of Chiefs Training Camp, including the VIP Tent, Helmet Walk, Gatorade Junior Training Camp and Family Fun Day. These initiatives are not only dear to Chiefs Kingdom, but they also serve as another example of the ongoing commitment to supporting the Chiefs civic duty by empowering these young women and celebrating their achievements.

Highlights from this year include visits to schools, community centers, food pantries, hospitals, military installations and various other youthfocused charities and organizations.

In 2012, the Hunt Family and the Kansas City Chiefs announced the creation of the Arrowhead Art Collection within Arrowhead Stadium. At its core, the collection was designed to celebrate regional art while showcasing the culture of Chiefs Kingdom.

With over 40 pieces, the Arrowhead Art Collection is currently the largest collection of commissioned artworks in the National Football League.

The Kickoff Luncheon raises funds for local charitable organizations but also acts as a way for the Chiefs organization to welcome its players and coaches back to Kansas City for the start of the season. The Kickoff Luncheon is the perfect opportunity to not only get the fans excited about the upcoming season but also for the Chiefs to make a powerful impact in the community that supports them so passionately.

50TH ANNUAL 101 AWARDS The Kansas City Chiefs embrace many traditions and philanthropic efforts near and dear to the heart of its founder, the late Lamar Hunt. This has become a value passed on from generation to generation of Chiefs fans, players and executives.

The annual 101 Awards are one way the organization honors Lamar’s legacy.

The 101 Awards began following the 1969 season, six years after the Chiefs move to Kansas City. In conjunction with Lamar, this nationally renowned event was led by Kansas City businessman Jack O. Wheeler to recognize outstanding achievements in professional football. Each year, members of a civic organization called “The Committee of 101” host the 101 Awards, Kansas City’s Salute to Professional Football. The event has grown to be one of the premier award shows following the National Football League season.

The event honors players and coaches from across the NFL as well as within the Chiefs organization. 101 members of the national media select the Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year and Coach of the Year from the American Football Conference and National Football Conference to be recognized at the event. In 2008, the 101 Awards introduced the Lamar Hunt Award for Professional Football to honor the life and legacy of Lamar. Past recipients of this award include The Foolish Club (the original eight owners of the American Football League), Tony Dungy, NFL Films, Paul Tagliabue, and the winning teams of Super Bowl III and IV. The 50th annual 101 Awards followed the 2019-2020 NFL season, marking the golden anniversary of the longestrunning awards event dedicated exclusively to the NFL. Six first-time award recipients were honored at the show.

Following the national awards, Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman and safety Tyrann Mathieu were recognized with team awards. Hardman received the Mack Lee Hill Award as the top first-year player, and Mathieu was the recipient of the Derrick Thomas Award as the most valuable player, as voted on by their teammates.

The 13th annual Lamar Hunt Award for Professional Football was given posthumously to the late Bart Starr. The Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback is the only player in NFL history at that position to lead his team to five league titles in the same decade, which included three-consecutive championship from 1965-67. Starr’s wife Cherry accepted the award on his behalf.

However, the 101 Awards aren’t just a night of celebration for football’s biggest stars. They’re also a way to fulfill Lamar’s passion of service to the community. For a fifth-straight year, proceeds from the event benefitted The University of Kansas Health System’s Sports Medicine and Performance Center. This team of experts strive to prevent injury and improve the health and wellness of student-athletes throughout the region.

Each year, the 101 Awards rise to the occasion and prove their high regard throughout the NFL, and so the tradition of concluding the season with the best of the best gathered in Kansas City, celebrating what makes this game so special, continues.

Cherry Starr, the widow of Bart Starr, accepted her late husband’s honor as the recipient of the Lamar Hunt Award for Professional Football from Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt at the 50th annual 101 Awards.

This is something special, never been here before but Coach Reid told me about it, told me it’s a great event.
