Earlier this year, Travis Kelce’s reputation for giving back was facing a setback after an investigation into the NFL players’ charitable foundations raised questions about how some donated money was spent. Kelce’s Eighty-Seven and Running Foundation raised more than $1.5 million between 2021 and 2024, yet its reported charity spending was notably lower than that of several other NFL-linked organizations.Travis Kelce nonprofit spending comes under scrutinyIn January, 2026, according to federal tax records examined by The Arizona Republic, Eighty-Seven and Running reported about $1.5 million in revenue during the three-year period and roughly $1.1 million in expenses.
