Damar Hamlin’s Gofundme has surpassed $3.8 million as fans show their support for the NFL star who was left in critical condition following a collision during a game Monday night.

In December 2020, Hamlin, 24, created a GoFundMe page called the ‘The Chasing M’s Foundation Community Toy Drive’ to purchase toys for children ahead of the holidays.

“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, and the first program is the 2020 Community Toy Drive.” He wrote.

“Sending lots of hope, prayers, and positive energy to you and your family.” wrote a donor.

“My prayers go out to Damar’s family and teammates. Get well soon, Damar. We love you!” wrote another.

What happened to Damar Hamlin?

Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin, 24, went into cardiac arrest during the first quarter of Monday night’s game in Cincinnati and collapsed on the field, according to his team.

Hamlin collapsed to the ground moments after rising from an open-field tackle by Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins. It is still unknown what caused the cardiac arrest.

“His heartbeat was restored on the field and he was transferred to the (University of Cincinnati) Medical Center for further testing and treatment. He is currently sedated and listed in critical condition,” the Bills said in a tweet early Tuesday.

Players were distraught after Hamlin’s collapse, kneeling with arms around one another before returning to their locker rooms. The game was called off with nearly 6 minutes remaining in the first quarter and was later officially postponed. CNN reported.
