The auction included a certificate of authenticity, a photo of Kelce, and another of the famous couple. The proceeds will benefit children under 19 years old facing significant illnesses or life-altering injuries.

The jersey was sold a week after the Chiefs' Super Bowl victory over the San Francisco 49ers with a final score of 25-22 in overtime, where Kelce and Patrick Mahomes were instrumental in the win. Swift, accompanied by well-known actresses and musicians, celebrated on the field post-game, creating a memorable moment with Kelce that went viral on social media.

Tragically, just days after the Chiefs' victory, a shooting at the Kansas City victory parade resulted in the death of Lisa Lopez-Galvan and injuries to over 20 individuals. In response, Swift donated $100,000 to a GoFundMe campaign for Lopez-Galvan's family. Kelce's charity, the Eighty-Seven & Running Foundation, also made significant donations to the children of Erika Reyes, Lopez-Galvan's cousin, who started a fundraiser after her daughters were injured during the shooting incident.
