Red Friday Schedule!

rf15


Thank you Kansas City for your support of Red Friday! This year was the 15th Anniversary of Red Friday held on September 21st. This annual event is geared towards painting the town “red” with excitement for the home opener. We hope you wore your red in support of the Chiefs and enjoyed the day of fun and festivities. The day long celebration began with magazine sales early in the morning, a luncheon and then a pep rally in the early evening both hosted by the Kansas City Sports Commission. All monies raised benefit the charities of Jarrad Page, Dustin Colquitt and Donnie Edwards.  This year Red Friday raised over $90,000 for charity. On behalf of the Red Coaters we would like to thank you for your support of this wonderful cause. Be sure to stay tuned for details regarding next year’s Red Friday events!

rf40Dustin Colquitt’s charity, TLC, was founded in 1972 to fulfill an unmet need in our community, a need for an emergency shelter for abused and neglected children from infancy through age 12. Prior to the establishment of TLC, many children were inappropriately placed in costly hospitals. Through the years, TLC has expanded its services to children in crisis to further our mission. The mission of TLC is to provide opportunities that encourage positive growth and change for children, youth and families while ensuring a safe environment. TLC strives for the preservation and healing of families by providing services, to the extent allowed by our resources, that compliment existing community services while maintaining responsiveness to changing community needs.
rf40In 2002, Donnie Edwards created the Donnie Edwards Best Defense Foundation. Working with organizations such as the Jump for Life program, Boy Scouts and the Boys and Girls Clubs of America, the foundation is a way of assisting children challenged by the same obstacles that he faced growing up. A young man of mixed ethnic background that came from a single-parent family and lived in an economically-depressed area, Edwards defied the odds to reach success.
rf40Kansas City Chiefs Safety Jarrad Page’s charity, the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, comprises a national network of more than 3,900 neighborhood-based facilities annually serving some 4.6 million young people, primarily from disadvantaged circumstances. Known as “The Positive Place for Kids”, the Clubs provided guidance-oriented character development programs on a daily basis for children 6-18 years old, conducted by a full-time professional staff. Key Boys & Girls Club programs emphasize character and leadership development, education and career development, health and life skills, the arts, sports, fitness and recreation.
