Tom Brady makes huge donation to Damar Hamlin's fundraiser with more than $7m raised

Tom Brady donated $10,000 to the fundraiser set up by Buffalo Bills star Damar Hamlin, with the total raised now at a staggering $7million. Hamlin set up the the fundraiser in December to raise money to buy Christmas gifts for underprivileged children.

The NFL star set the target of $2,500, with the aim of buying toys for children in Hamlin's community. However, in the aftermath of his medical incident during Monday night's game against the Cincinnati Bengals, the fundraiser on GoFundMe has gone viral and taken off beyond his wildest imagination.

Hamlin was hospitalised on Monday night after suffering a cardiac arrest in the first quarter against the Bengals. The Bills safety made a routine stop on Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins, but took a strong blow to the chest from Higgins' helmet in the process.
