The raindrops pitter-pattered on the glass windows at Kelly & Nina’s Daycare on a gloomy Tuesday afternoon, the weather matching the mood of a concerned community.
On the precipice of his NFL dream, the proud son of a tight-knit community organized a toy drive at a daycare run by his mother, Nina. While other NFL hopefuls were fine-tuning their 40-yard dash, Hamlin collected toys, coats, gloves and other winter essentials. His goal was to support those in a town of 6,000 people in which more than 30 percent of the population lives below the poverty line, according to the latest figures from the U.S. Census Bureau.
Hamlin coupled the toy drive with a GoFundMe page backed by his non-profit organization, Chasing M’s. The hope was to raise $2,500.
