Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane announced a partnership with local charitable organizations to aid people affected by the coronavirus pandemic, including a $20,000 donation.
In a release sent out Monday, Beane announced he is teaming with the United Way of Buffalo & Erie County to raise awareness for the WNY COVID-19 Community Response Fund. The fund is a collaboration between several local groups, and proceeds will go toward aiding essential organizations.
"I'm grateful for individuals in Buffalo and across the country that are on the frontlines—doctors, nurses, first responders, grocery store workers, pharmacists, all the people that are trying to help others and are putting their own health at risk for this big cause," Beane said.
