‘Touchdown for Kids’ Health’: Eagles fans can support the team while raising funds for CHOP before Super Bowl 2023

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — Eagles Fans – You can show your support for your team while raising money for a good cause.

The children’s hospitals of the two Super Bowl teams are in their own friendly competition as everyone counts down to the big game.

The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and Children’s Mercy Kansas City have partnered for the Touchdown for Kids’ Health Fan Challenge.

Eagles and Chiefs fans are encouraged to go to touchdownkidshealth.org and vote for their team by making a donation to their city’s Children’s Hospital.

Football fans can show their team spirit while helping to raise funds for their local children’s hospital.

Each hospital has set a goal of raising $15,000.

As of Monday February 6, both hospitals have exceeded their target. But now it’s all about winning the friendly competition.

Children’s Mercy Kansas City raised over $42,000. Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia has raised over $17,000.

Donations to each hospital will support children’s heart research in honor of Heart Month in February and Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin, who suffered cardiac arrest on the field on Jan. 2.

The fundraiser will run until Monday, February 13 at 3pm EST.
