Here's how Damar Hamlin plans to use the $8.6 million his toy drive raised -- and the latest on his health.
He will also use proceeds from the sale of new T-shirts, emblazoned with “?” along with his hands in the shape of a heart, to raise money for the trauma center in Cincinnati that treated him. Hamlin, who live-tweeted through his team’s victory over New England on Sunday, tweeted Tuesday that he has returned to Buffalo but is still in the hospital being evaluated.
GoFundMe representatives said the crowdfunding platform will soon transfer the donations that have come in since Hamlin's injury Jan. 2 to the new fund. Chasing M's is Hamlin's apparel company.Hamlin and his family “are humbled by the tremendous support that has been shown as he recovers," according to his marketing representative, Jordon Rooney.
“We are working as a team to facilitate the transfer as soon as practical,” said the Giving Back Fund. It plans to disclose the final total of all donations, which include support from star quarterbacks Tom Brady and Russell Wilson. As a fiscal sponsor for the donations, The Giving Back Fund is compensated for collecting the funds. The University of Cincinnati Medical Center did not respond to a request for comment.
Similarly, Carl Fochler decided on a donation of $25,003 on behalf of the sustainable laundry company Sheets Laundry Club he co-owns. He stayed up late the night of Hamlin’s injury waiting for an update on his health. The next morning, he logged on looking for news and saw a link to a video of Hamlin talking about his fundraising for kids.
