Bills Make We Wanna Give: Damar Hamlin discusses his community involvement, CPR training initiatives

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (WIVB) — While the Bills and thousands of fans will return to Highmark Stadium on Sunday, WIVB is speaking with players about what they are doing off the field to help local charities and the community.

News 4 Wake Up’s Scott Patterson spoke with safety Damar Hamlin about his community involvement, and how it’s evolving beyond what happened to him on the field early last year.

“I’ve always wanted to build myself into somebody that the neighborhood and the kids can look up to and be inspired by,” Hamlin said.
