Chiefs and Royals Alumni Unite to Bring Smiles to The University of Kansas Hospital

Since 2012, the Chiefs have participated in numerous outreach initiatives and visits in conjunction with The University of Kansas Hospital to give strength to many patients.

A familiar face to TUKH, former linebacker Shawn Barber is no stranger to showing support to patients in the Kansas City community.

“We’ve got the Royals and the Chiefs here today. I think it's an important role not only an Ambassador but an alumni to continue to show our outreach to the entire community,” Barber said.

The former athletes got a chance to visit various patients from pediatrics to intensive care, dropping off gifts and generating laughter for those fighting minute to serious health battles.
