NFL fans raise more than $3m for Damar Hamlin’s toy drive after on-field collapse

NFL fans reacted with an outpouring of donations to Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin’s charity after he collapsed on the field during a game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday night.

A GoFundMe page he set up after leaving college in December 2020 - The Chasing M’s Foundation Community Toy Drive - has received over 120,000 donations in the space of a few hours.

The original goal was to raise $2,500, but following his cardiac arrest, the total now stands at over $3,147,000.
