Big Slick 2025 in Kansas City turned out to be a massive success, raising $4.5 million for Children’s Mercy Hospital over the weekend.
The popular annual fundraiser brought together a crowd of celebrities, athletes, and local supporters, all working towards one goal—supporting children’s health in the region.
Some of the biggest names from Kansas City made their presence felt, including Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, along with actors Paul Rudd, Jason Sudeikis, Rob Riggle, David Koechner, and Eric Stonestreet. All of them share a connection with Kansas City and are deeply involved with the Big Slick charity.
This year’s events were held at T-Mobile Center in downtown Kansas City. The venue was packed with energy as fans and donors came together to take part in the excitement.
The night included entertainment, heartfelt stories, and lots of laughs, all with the purpose of raising funds for a hospital that serves thousands of children and families every year.
According to organizers, Big Slick has now raised over $23 million for Children’s Mercy since it started in 2010. Every year, the event continues to grow, both in the amount raised and the scale of celebrity participation.
One of the key highlights this year was the participation of Mahomes and Kelce, who joined the original Big Slick hosts on stage and brought in even more excitement. Their involvement made a big difference, drawing in fans and boosting donations throughout the night.
Children’s Mercy, a nonprofit pediatric hospital, relies heavily on community support and fundraising to maintain its services.
Events like Big Slick make it possible to fund critical research, buy specialized equipment, and provide care for children who need it most.
The weekend was more than just a show. It was a heartfelt gathering filled with Kansas City pride, genuine care, and a mission to make a difference.
With the incredible $4.5 million raised this year, the team behind Big Slick has once again proved how powerful community support can be when it comes to helping kids.
