Damar Hamlin is getting a lot of love and support, including his charitable endeavors.
On Monday (January 2), the 24-year-old player collapsed to the ground after tackling Tee Higgins. He was treated on the field for more than 10 minutes by the medical team, who reportedly administered oxygen and used an AED before the player was rushed to the hospital in critical condition.
The Buffalo Bills safety’s online initiative, a toy drive GoFundMe launched in 2020, has since raised $3.6 million in donations following the on-field collapse.

“As I embark on my journey to the NFL, I will never forget where I come from and I am committed to using my platform to positively impact the community that raised me. I created The Chasing M’s Foundation as a vehicle that will allow me to deliver that impact,” he wrote on the GoFundMe.
“Thank you so much for supporting me on and off the field. I am grateful to have the opportunity to work with you to help make the holiday season a little brighter for the kids in our community.”
