The Buffalo faithful has raised over $180,000 for a non-profit organization in rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman's hometown.
Bills Mafia’s passion is matched only by its generosity, this demonstrated time and time again through the fanbase’s various charitable endeavors over the years.
The group’s graciousness-rooted compassion first manifested in late 2017 when the Cincinnati Bengals upset the Baltimore Ravens in a Week 17 contest, their win allowing the Buffalo Bills to sneak into the playoffs and break their 17-year postseason drought.
“working to stop the cycle of poverty” in the city “through enrichment programming for youth and families, and providing opportunities for people to serve one another.”"I just wanna say thank you," Hope for Opelousas Executive Director Loren Carriere told Buckley. "Never would've thought I'd be part of the 'Mafia'! I didn't even know Bills Mafia existed until now.
The donations have come throughout the month of May. Coleman and his family, per Buckey, took part in the organization's programs in their youth.Coleman has not yet stepped onto a football field in front of the Buffalo faithful, but his impact on them is already evident. With these donations, Bills Mafia is hoping to make a similar impact within his hometown.
