The post also expressed gratitude to Donna for selling her famous chocolate chip cookies.The finest present of all is a victory for the Eagles and the opportunity to raise funds for our Eagles autism community.
It was written in the post. The earnings from Mama Kelce’s cookie sale were donated to the Eagles Autism Foundation, and we wanted to express our gratitude to Donna Kelce for doing so.
It did not appear that Donna’s grandchildren, Elliotte, who is two years old, Wyatt, who is three years old, and Bennett, who is ten months old, were present for the match on Christmas Day.
In contrast, Kylie, who is 31 years old, told People earlier this month that she intended to postpone the Christmas celebration with her family until Tuesday.
According to what she shared with PEOPLE, “We are going to take full advantage of the fact that our daughters are not yet able to read a calendar, so we are going to pretend that Christmas is on the 26th.” On the 26th of December, I mean everything from the top to the bottom, including presents.

In addition, as Donna was showing her support for Jason by cheering him on with Kylie, her other son, Travis Kelce, and the Kansas City Chiefs were defeated by the Las Vegas Raiders by a score of 20-14 on Monday.
In a recent interview with PEOPLE, the mother of two NFL players said that she has become accustomed to spending her Christmas away from home.
Donna continued to spend a significant amount of time away from her house during this time of year in order to help her kids accomplish their athletic goals before they were able to make it to the National Football League.

According to what Donna shared with People, “the majority of the time, the holidays were spent cheering on the children as they participated in a variety of sporting events and enjoying the Christmas break with other families.”
When asked about the holiday games, she responded, “I understand that it’s part of the job.” As a member of our football family, I look forward to the holiday games and take pleasure in spending time with them.
“Santa has always been able to find families who work on Christmas Day on an alternate date,” Donna continued. “I would like to thank Santa for this.”
She stated, “But I remember the joy in their eyes as they woke up early on Christmas Day to come downstairs to screams, laughter, and a flurry of ripped wrapping paper.” She was referring to the fact that they had woken up ahead of schedule.

This year, Donna partnered with Aramark Sports + Entertainment to bring her famous chocolate chip cookies, one of her son’s favorite dishes, to both the Eagles-Giants and Chiefs-Raiders Christmas Day games.
“All proceeds from cookie sales will benefit organizations selected by the teams – the Eagles Autism Foundation in Philadelphia and Operation Breakthrough in Kansas City,” Donna shared.
“These two organizations mean a lot to my sons, and it’s a nice feeling to be able to support them in my own special way.”
